What characterizes a track bike

Track bikes focus on performance, with aggressive geometry and lightweight materials. The main technical features:

  • Fixed gear: no freewheel or derailleurs; the rider must pedal continuously to maintain motion.
  • No brakes: a hallmark of velodrome track bikes.
  • Minimum regulatory weight: 6.8 kg, as set by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI).

Track vs. Fixed: Two different uses

Track bikes are designed for velodrome performance. Urban fixed bikes are built on the same technical base but are oriented for city use, appreciated by those seeking an essential, lightweight, and minimalist design — however, note that unlike track bikes, some urban fixed bikes may include a brake for road circulation; always verify the specific equipment of the model chosen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a track bike be used on the road?

Pure track bikes without brakes are not suitable for road traffic. For urban use, there are fixed variants equipped with brakes; always verify the specific equipment before purchasing.

What does "fixed gear" mean?

It means the rear wheel is directly connected to the pedaling, without a freewheel: if the wheels turn, the pedals turn too. It is not possible to stop pedaling while the bike is in motion.

What is the minimum weight of a competition track bike?

The Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) regulations set a minimum weight of 6.8 kg.

Is installment payment available?

Yes, through Findomestic Banca, subject to approval by the financial institution, available directly at checkout for eligible products.
