More Info:
this was an old road frame that i had "converted" into a track frame. with the help of our local frame builder, Ave Maldea, we were able to adjust the geometry to a more aggressive configuration. we also changed the seat lug from stamped to an investment cast one. the bottom bracket has also been replaced with an english threaded one. finally, we replaced the horizontal dropouts with stainless steel track ends.
the parts i used for this build are what i have lying around in my studio at the moment.

great build.. i like the way you choose gumwall tire, so nice! oh btw about cinelli unicator, how does it feel? is it hurt? because it doesnt have padding.. unless if you riding on padding pants

the Unicanitor saddle does not hurt, at least for me. i think it's because the plastic is flexible so that absorbs the bumps. :)
