Current Stage Info:
After not being able to decide if i wanted to sell it I decided that a major overhaul had to be done.Definitely feels weird to be riding a 48t chainring, need to pick up a 49-50 soon. Zen Maybe? ;) New wheels will be built up soon :D

I believe this is a road bike, I don't think Flyte makes track bikes.
Posted almost 12 years ago
definitely not, with enough lurking on google you will see that Flyte did make a track frame, there was even an interview with the owner of flyte announcing there was going to be one track frame on their newest (I believe last) release. The frame has track dropouts, no derailluer hangers, the seat tube is much to fat and weird shaped to have a clamp on front derailluer and no braze on was removed, no parts to hold cables. The frame has extremely tight geo and would definitely not make for a good road bike.

im not trying to be rude or anything, but i do get this question a lot so i will use this as my proof to support that this is a track bike. This is all i that i believe is needed to show that Flyte made a track bike. In the second link i supplied the owner of flyte states somewhere in the interview a Track frame would be available. Since Flyte is long gone i suppose peoples reactions to not believing a track frame existed is understandable, but cmon, a little google would get things sorted out neatly. :)

Posted almost 12 years ago

are you ever gunna sell this? i was the guy who was trying to buy it from craigslist a while back if u remember.
Posted almost 12 years ago
haha, were you the one looking to trade stuff? like the phil woods and that vintage frame?
Posted almost 12 years ago
no no you put this up on craigslist for like 1 grand, and i was trying to buy, but you said you wanted to ride it for another season.
Posted almost 12 years ago
alright i think you were the one where this frame might be a little too big. I am still considering selling it, but unfortunately its not complete anymore. I sold cranks and bars, and the HED 3 is being used on my triathlon bike.
Posted almost 12 years ago
well if your ever trying to sell the frame, i will definitely be interested in trading parts or buying.
Posted almost 12 years ago
