Yeah it does, the track pro is also a smaller bike which is why the seat is so high. But I ride the mash cinelli for commuting to work. I was reluctant to cut the steerer any shorter than it is now which is the maximum cut down height. The trade off between positioning, and this has a lot to do with my physical fitness, is that I can hold position in the drops on the cinelli for the duration of my ride. On the fuji I drop into position during short speed burst.
