Notes:

I've always wanted a pursuit frame, the GTB was close, but this is even better. Custom built frame from Mostowy in Arizona in 1996 for a junior track team, not for me of course. It is one of 6 frames like this.
It is a fun ride, hurts like hell after a while, but is definitely worth it. Debating getting an older HED disc, or building up a set of CD open pros to high flange shimano. Love how she rides and skids, you can get way over the front in the drops.

edit-Sold to a guy in Long Beach, farewell.

Hi;

Met the Bike maker in 1999 in Tucson, AZ he worked for himself and made a special guest aperance in the local bike shops once and a while. Nice guy. Have only seen a couple of racing bikes he made, this one is way different from those I had seen. I cant race or do track anymore its a long story. Is Arnold Mostowy still around these days? If so say so. Heres a Hello. Old Bike Fan 98
