The new track bike is ready now and I already raced it.
Yesterday night, I did some minor races on the track in Apeldoorn.
I didn't ride the bike before, so I wasn't sure how it felt and performed. Luckily I did measure everything well, so there were no re-adjustments necessary. One thing I wasn't used to was the short crank length. I never rode 165 mm cranks before and I must admit that it felt very different from my regular 170 mm track cranks, especially in a race.
About the bike: the decals I used are the home made water slides. Doesn't look very nice, so, I may have to take these off and try another set. Or my mate in U.K. will finally deliver the vinyl ones...
