My forst foray in to track bikes: Was it common for 70's track bikes to have the fork crown and seatstay bridge drilled for brakes? I recently acquired a beautiful fully chromed Falcon with Campy track dropouts, which the previous owner had outfitted with Suntour single speed freewheel and NR brakes. Had it not been for the track dropouts, I would have thought it to be a road machine.

I suppose if they were making large production runs, it would be fiscally prudent to have one style fork crown, and one style seatstay bridge, etc etc etc., so that a track machine would be appear to be purposely drilled for brakes?
