short legs

and no pedal strike with front tire AND/OR ground.

remember that while turning, u lean the bike and CONTINUE pedaling on a fixed gear drive train.

most tracks bikes have higher bottom brackets compared to road bikes though.

pretty much i've use 165mm on all my bikes and i use 170mm on my road bike.

sugino grand mightys even come in 163mm sizes.

friends old 43mm 700c dolan pre cursa w/163mm grand mightys. he's like 5'2 ish
