Riding the banked turns of a smooth velodrome requires different handling characteristics and a stouter frame than a city fixie.  I’ve turned up the angles on this bike to make an aggressive attacking machine.  I also  custom select the tubes for every rider.  This enables me  to achieve the proper amount of stiffness for the individual and his  race.  Extra beefy chainstays and straight bladed fork (optional) keep your wheels glued to the track.   Long slotted dropouts are carefully positioned parallel to the ground.  Thus sliding the rear wheel back and forth, by changing gears or chain length, will not affect the head angle.  Power though turn 4 and beyond with confidence on this classic steel track bike.
