Here you’ll see all detaild about our frames which are made by hand one at the time our emails are jespina@spartonframeusa.compjmercado@spartonframeusa.comour web site www.spartonframeusa.comThis has to be the best track frame in the US for the price $249.99 free shipping with in the US and extra $55.00 for internation shipping clik on spartonframeusa to other videosMy email jespina@spartonframeusa.comour web site www.spartonframeusa.comThis is rather cool.
Jorge Espina - main distributor for Sparton USA - goes over some of the details of the Sparton frame.
He also addresses a few questions/comments that have been floating around about the frames.
I like that he briefly talks about the weight issue as I had mentioned below.
They are a decent mid-weight bike, but they aren’t obese.
To put it into perspective, the Schwinn Madison fully built minus pedals weighs in at a portly 21.8 lbs.
The Sparton fully built is less than that.Recent news about the unfortunate mis-sizing of the bike frame I was going to get meant I have been thrust back into the market for a new ride.
I’ve been looking at quite a few bikes from Japanese Keirin to Italian to off the shelf complete bikes to classic track and rare finds.
There are plenty of options out there but for my tastes I wanted something a little more exclusive, something different.
Unfortunately, this meant my search was getting fairly complicated.Lately, Chris and I have been talking about a little plan we have.
It involves us taking our passion for bikes to the next level.
With that in mind, I’ve simplified my search: clean, simple and - the big one - affordable.
This brought me back to a bike that has been on my mind for more than a year: Sparton.Sparton frames are hand-built in Chile under the supervision of “El Maestro”.
These bikes have only recently been made available here in the states.
The frames come in a range of basic color choices.
If you are looking for a custom spray, it will cost you $95 more and set the delivery date back to about 4-6 weeks.The frameset itself isn’t extremely light nor is it ridiculously heavy at just under 7 lbs including the fork.
The geometry, unlike some track bikes, is extremely relaxed.
Head tube angle is 71.5 degrees, seat tube angle is 72.22 degrees and the fork is 3.2.
This means the bike is somewhat stiff but has enough flex to be comfortable for long rides (as in 50+ miles a day) or as a nice daily commuter; think track bike with a road bike feel.
This aspect alone has always intrigued me about Sparton frames.Track bikes in general are awesome.
Super stiff, tight geometry, exceptionally agile and quick.
The problem is that the combination of these elements does not make for the most forgiving extended ride.
Some would argue that that is the reason you have more than one bike.
And, well, I agree with that, but for most people one bike is enough and that one has to do many things.
If “the one” is decided to be a fixed-gear bike, I often encourage people to look at bikes with less “track” and more “function”.Another huge plus: all the decals are completely removable - they are placed over the clearcoat.
If one so chose, you could remove the stickers and let the subtle “Sparton” stamp on the seatstays provide ultra minimal advertising.Anyway, I’m preaching, what I’m trying to get across is that my next frame will be a Sparton.
A lugged steel track frame for just under $249? Sounds like a deal to me…sold! (less) Added: January 27, 2008 Category: Sports Tags: Sparton Frame (less) Added: November 01, 2007 Category: Sports Tags: SPARTON TRACK FRAME USA

Netvibes Readies Video Widgets for CBS in Rev Share Pact, Beet.TV Has LearnedVideo widgets are not new, but the monetization scheme surrounding this technology is still being sorted out.
Last month, Google announced a new widget that will work with video.One big development will occur later this months when Netvibes introduces video widgets with advertising for episodes of CBS, Beet.TV has learned.I was delighted to meet Netvibes founder Tariq Krim, 34, last week on the MIT campus where he was being honored as one of the Technology Review’s most influential young innovators.Tariq, who splits his time between Paris and San Francisco, gave a great overview of widgets and various monetization opportunities and spoke briefly about the deal with CBS which is a revenue share agreement.
Details or of the images of the CBS widgets are not yet available.Just last week, Netvibes announced universal API’s for widgets.To get a perspective on the utility of video widgets, I’ve asked Marshall Kirkpatrick, who really knows this area.
Marshall is newest bloggers over at Read/WriteWeb.
Here’s what he told me earlier today: “Widgets are one of the best “publish and subscribe” ways to deliver video by RSS and it’s only a matter of time until publishers everywhere find out about them.
Widgets on media sites will include ads with a revenue split and corporate sites will pay a licensing fee for the widgets - I don’t think the methods are in question, just whether the supply and demand will be timed right.
These startup page companies have such a slow burn rate that it should work out just fine in the long run; I think it’s just distribution channels they need and I think those will come.
I don’t think this newest Universes launch is going to work, but I think Netvibes in general is strong.”Keep an eye on those widgets.You can grab the embed code of this video right here.– Andy PlesserPosted on Wednesday, October 03, 2007
