Thunderdome Frameset

We are at the core of our very heart a track bike brand, always have been, always will be.  Because of that, we wanted to up jump our velodrome game, and create a full on race specific alloy sprint monster. 

Enter the Thunderdome. 

We've taken our tried and true Big Block geometry and adapted it to a shorter axle to crown carbon fork and alloy frameset.  Because we love the lines of the old Cannondale track bikes, we went with traditional round tubing, a standard 1 1/8" headset, and to give it that AC touch, polished panels on the downtube and chainstay. 

It is stiff, fast, and ready to race.
