The Supercorsa is still made in Milan, Italy and can even be ordered with custom geometry (6 month wait).

It's good to see that you are setup both at school and the velodrome. Your paint job looks good in your pics. BTW, I have that seatpost.

So, it might be a bit early, but have you thought about...

After two years of racing in her comeback, my 1975 Paramount is now officially retired. In her place (much to my wife's dismay) I decided that I needed a classic steel bike to replace her. I...

They look like standard old school geometry numbers which are okay to an old school guy like me, but you are too far back with you you bike position. You might want to try get you hands closer to...

I found Rock Hill much easier to ride with aero bars than Ttown. For some reason, it just felt natural, maybe because of the steeper banked turns.

I thought your coach's plan for you first trip to the Nats was just to get exposed to the big time, not for you to win. Anyway, my fear is that too many equipment requirements before a new trackie...

sarals,

Carleton's suggestions are good, but I would suggest a different path. Everything you have is good enough for you to start racing, but I would suggest that you acquire 14T and 15T cogs...

That's a very nice looking entry into the discipline bike. With your wheel & bar options, you should be good to go for a long while.

In all practicality, 56T should be more than plenty. With a 12T cog you have a 125" gear. If anyone wants to push more than that, their frame choices should be limited just like their chain ring...

I figure if I don't ride fast anymore, just means I'll spend more time to looking at my bike. :lol:

That's a nice looking bike and I haven't seen any of them at my track yet. The TR-02 was on my shopping list, but I decided I needed a taller head tube, so I went with a Pinarello.

Also, the OP needs to be aware of local track rules. I believe Kissena's rule is ride on the drops at all times and Ttown allows the Pro-1-2 to use top position, but the cat 4-5 definitely need to...

Nice! That is a long TT. In my younger days I used to ride 130-140mm stems to compensate for standard frame sizes, but now I look for shorter TTs and taller HTs. I'm no longer very flexible. :(
