This is a breakaway track bike. The Ritchey couplers are a unique addition to this bike, or any bike for that matter. Notice the dimple in the seat tube for tight-as-fuck clearance. Also, the curved seatstays and chainstays (framebuilder's signature). The other thumb is my frame when it was first built. A diamond in the rough. I'd also like to add I now have bar plugs.
