Bike Reviews

A purebred velo racer NO-HOLDS-BARRED SPEED: Designed with input from two-time Olympian Jame Carney, this bike has a battleship-rugged aluminum frame to resist the torque of powerful match sprinters, while the high bottom bracket keeps pedals from whacking the track in turns. There are no mounting holes for brakes, underscoring the fact that this bike is for the oval only. You can swap in Cane Creek Volos carbon wheels, for a total price of $1799. SWITCHAROO: Use the bike in its stock form for mass-start races and sprints, or mount a drop stem with an aerobar for races against the clock. Track-bike technology changes very slowly, so this is probably all the machine you'll ever need.
