Couple recent track bikes that have shown up here

Both have interesting stems. The blue one as incorrect wheels(steel rims).
they are both for sale, email for prices.
sorry this is not that descriptive, I will try to work on that. I will be updating the blog more regularly soon. I have a lot to add, including pictures of a nice saved Alex Singer, Sheldon Brown's Paramount, and many others.
