Track VS TT bike?


Tankman

Recommended Posts

I want to get a Track bike but I am also strongly considering getting a TT bike in the near future?

 

Is there a track bike that can be converted into a TT bike without to much trouble or a TT bike that can be converted into a Track bike?

 

The only real issue I can think offhand is the rear dropout would have to be able to accommodate a hanger for the rear derailleur. And cable routing...

 

The geometry of these bikes should be able to work well in either discipline.

I would rather get a stronger and yes heavier Track bike and use that for TT as long as I can get pretty aero on it?

 

Ideas or suggestions?

this is what I am talking about:

 

Look at the rear drop out, will I be able to use that on the track as well?
