Sasha,
The rear brake bridge precludes the use of anything but a
standard diameter 700c rear wheel. And that's also what makes
it obvious that this isn't the hour record bike - i.e. the
record bike was a brakeless, derailleur-less, track bike. This
bike is typical of the first, aerodynamic "funny-bikes".
