Here’s my Cecil Walker track bike. Been riding it for a few months now, just cleaned it up and thought it deserved an official introduction on here.

60cm Cecil Walker frame
Mavic MA2 rims to NOS Dura Ace hubs
Dura Ace cranks/fyxo chainring
Soma sprocket
Nitto B123 bars/brooks tape (a little beat up)
Shimano headset
Soma Cardiff saddle
ITM stem
Cheap seatpost
MKS pedals/clips
VP straps
Still needs new stem, seatpost, straps and a few other tweaks!

Hey man, if I were to build a track bike, this would be it.
But it average person size. And probably a saddle shaped to my own arse.

Yep… I am a giant! Will probably let it go one day when i can afford a custom 63cm… but till then this handles pretty well.

The very same… Haha thanks
That’s lush. Beautiful understated classic look. Jealous. But not about the size. Think I’d need stilts to ride it.
