Disc wheels are optional and are added to front or rear depending on the event, if at all. In some events some riders have front disc and others rear. It all depends how much moving about the track they need to do.
Why no disc wheel?
Do I look like I live neaar Velodrome though dumbass?Why don’t you ask someone else.
dont forget the track ends! pretty important when describing a track bike.
“track bikes can be converted to road use by adding a brake“, haha, or just why not have no brakes at all ?
Thnaks
question: what are the frames of pro trackbikes made from?
A bike with no gear and no brakes means its a bullshit bike that can be passed by any lousy entry level Road Bike.
no problem!
what is a BikeRadar?

Track bikes can be converted to road use by adding a brake. lol ok.
This Bike Is more for me when speeding and braking not climbing!!

running a bit of slack in ur chain there..
are track bikes fixed gear?
Noob of the moth hear, can you get a track bike with a road bikes geometry?
Understand something, I have two track bikes , both of them with front brakes,, more than 95% of the time I dont use them, and on that 5% maybe 4% of that i wouldnt need to use the brake itself. When i roll with my crew I am the only one that has a brake, and yes in Canada it is illegal but still the people who roll brakeless( especially now in winter) have alot of skill. many people suggest they are out of their minds, but i know that they know what they are doing, theyve mastered their bikes
Who puts a break on for road use? Not me!
