  1. Firstly does anyone know the seller of this bike in Edinburgh as his email
    address is being rejected by the sportscotland.org.uk mailserver. I have
    truncated the Ebay URL as it is massive.

    I was wondering as the owner said it should fit someone of approx 5.6' to
    6.0' this is a fairly large range, and would it be possible to change the
    front forks to fit a 700c wheel and still maintain a respectable geometry
    for the track

    cheers

    That's not a good sign.

    This can be done with many bikes, with enough seat post and stem.
    It's not very satisfactory, though.
