Bought the frame off of a retired track racer in Portland who had it built for him by his mechanic. He was the same size as me, but weighed 200 pounds (he was stacked) and said aluminum was not strong enough for the kind of sprinting he was doing and wanted a steel frame. There is only one other frame like it, the guy who designed it prefers to work with steel. Its scary fast!
