Giant builds one-off TCR Advanced Track frames Giant outfitted its track riders with specially-made versions of its previous-generation TCR Advanced road frames. Giant doesn’t currently list any carbon track frames in its range but sponsored Olympic track riders Peter Schep (Netherlands) and Wong Kam Po (Hong Kong) each had one anyway. Giant produced a handful of TCR Advanced Track racers based on its previous-generation TCR Advanced road model. According to Giant communications manager Andrew Juskaitis, fewer than 25 of these exist in the world and, at least for now, there are no plans for a production version. The TCR Advanced Track uses the same front triangle geometry as the standard TCR Advanced but track-specific seat- and chain stays are bonded on out back. The chain stays are also slightly offset to minimise flex under power, thus helping to keep the bike tracking straight when Schep and Wong were dropping the hammer. Carbon is used throughout the main frame and fork legs but an aluminium steerer is used for better rigidity and security. As is common on track machines, there are also additional layers of carbon for added stiffness though Giant claims the TCR Advanced Track is still lighter than most other comparable carbon track frames.

How were you able to fit a Dura Ace chain on a track ring? I have never heard of/seen a Dura Ace track chain.
