i think the open pros would be sick, but if you get a differnt color then change the chainring, and a radially laced front rim would make the bike that much sexier.

That's a sweet setup man! I really like the look of the alien frames. And your color choice was prime! What are your thoughts after riding it? Pedal over lap and issue?

The pedal overlap was sooo close which i thought was partially due to my large toe clips, but it clears them perfectly. This is my first track bike so it's brilliant in my opinion, but even my buddy who owns an eimei said it was stiff and smooth riding. I was also skeptical of Alien frames and i probably wouldn't have dropped about 0 on a random frame, but after trying it out i would recommend it.
