I have got race wheels - dura ace hubs, tubular tyres, forget the breed though - but they are much lighter than these ones. One day i'll get some PRO-LITE Vicenza

Need to work on the engine first though
Cheers

I'm not sure about the handlebars but the rest of it is amazing.

I am trying to decide whether to get my old 28 spoke hubs respoked with singles rims or convert to high pressure rims.

Singles, of course, high pressures have no place on a track bike unless you're a junior

Still no reason not to go singles - not like you'll have to repair any punctures, and you can use $30 Continental trainers instead of fancy silks - and if you DO race later you'll have the right rims so you can put the fancy rubber on then

bought new around 1990, not seen much use, put it back together about 3 years ago with a new crankset and wheels and did a few club events at Chandler but I'm a long way from peaking

Hoping to get into some semblence of shape once time and finances (divorce/child custody hearings

foo on patrol wrote:Hey Derny Driver, can you still buy the Sugino cranks? I am a fan of them, might not have the oh wow Campag ring to it but they were still good quality a long with Galli cranks that I ran and still have on my Track bike.![]()
Foo
Hey foo, Yes I bought them new .... Ebay Japan, about $200 plus postage. Great value I reckon.
Just type Sugino 75 into Ebay and you'll see them there. Postage from Japan better than the USA.
Cheers, DD

Ideal for motor pacing, the riders would have to be a bit aero than my TS250 Suzuki with Dad on it.

Derny Driver wrote:The ideal derny driver is a big fat bloke...umm Im working on that. A scooter has the advantage of smoothness over a moto, no gear changes... no fairing means I can easily bolt on a roller mount. Im also going to make removable spare wheel carriers on the back as well, for when we go on long road training rides. Its a 125, petrol tank is under the floor, handles beautifully especially on the velodrome.
That's an awesome rig! Did you make up all the frame yourself?
