I apologize for my last post off topic. I am curious on pre war track style bikes I have seen both half inch pitch and inch pitch. Is there a date that one was in favor over another? Where they both used at the same time on high end bikes or were better bikes one or the other? Thanks in advance Sam D. wornoutguy@aol.com
