After a couple years on a conversion I really wanted an actual track bike. The problem was—yup, you guessed it—money. I was the perfect prey for that big, online-only shop selling very inexpensive complete bikes. Basically, the anti-local bike shop. I know, I know—I feel guilty. The components that came on the Kilo TT were awful, but what can you expect for the price? The frame however felt amazing after switching from a 30 year old, touring frame. Once I picked up some new wheels and swapped out the flexing stem, the Kilo was a solid ride. My friend Matt painted it for me in his autobody shop. Plum-crazy purple matched with lime-green deep-v rims. This over-the-top color combo (and it’s size) earned the bike the nickname, “The Hulk.” Maybe that is why my current bikes are all black.
