saw that front tire clearance and my jaw dropped. but if youre gonna be racing that, you should go clipless

the old Dura Ace pedal/cleat system is a trackie favorite because there's no float and you are pretty much guaranteed to never unclip when you go for a hard sprint.

Inspired by this bike I built a fixed conversion out of an old Faggin frame using the same colour pattern. Hope you don't mind I "stole" this from you. It's just so beautiful.

Most beautiful bike ever. I liked the fixfixfix-version with dark rims even more. Still absolutly stunning with all the detail (e.g. red bar ends)
