I'm thinking of buying this frame, does it have overlap with the 165 cranks? Because I want to put my 170 omniums on it

i was a couple centimeters away from having overlap with 165s, but frame size changes wheelbase so a smaller frame might have it. overlap really isn't a problem, if you're going slow just time your turns right, and otherwise ride fast and don't take granny turns.

Certainly better than my first one, great first!

Thanks! But you should've seen it when I first finished. I don't have those pictures up here anymore, it was terrible. Hahaha

Looks pretty good! I understand how it feels to start with stock, and cheap parts. I have only but recently gotten my bike to have more parts I find appealing, and that are name branded! I recommend eBay, I have gotten great deals off that site. Especially on my Stem, Handlebars, & Pedals.

Thanks! None of this is "stock", I built the bike from the frame up, not from a complete. It was certainly a budget build though, so some of the components are so-so in quality. I'm really itching to upgrade a few things, but my money's pretty tight right now, and I'm working on a new Bianchi Pista build for the time being. eBay is pretty handy but I have a bike shop here that trades parts so that's usually where I go if I need a part when I'm strapped for cash, otherwise I like to buy new components when I can afford it.
