Urban Velo #3 - Bicycle Culture on the Skids
Don W is a boss - his bikes are amazing and he's a brain.
but until you are diving down a bank at +60kph, the geo of the Langster Pro is great for mass start / pursuit racing.
And if you are along the black line or coming over the top of an exchange at 55kph, the Langster is great.

For sprinters, yeah, geo makes a difference.
How much that matters for enduros? I'd say not much at all.
For the vast majority of track racers? Not so much - I mean, look at the guys on the Leader team winning P/1 races in LA..... the langster isn't "traditional track geo" - that's a fact, and it's just fine for the vast majority of us.
