Favorite track bike (pictures)
Post a picture of your favorite track bike. You can judge it based on appearance, components, roll of the dice -- whatever. But no conversions.

Of the 130someodd bikes in my screensaver file, this is the one I find the most amusing.

I've never seen a better looking bike. If I ever do i'll be in shock, because to me that is the perfect bike.

The Conti I posted is completely perfect in every way (in my eyes). The only two bikes that comes close in beauty to the Conti is TNCLR's Casati and 12XU's Mercian.
