Not a track bike, but a moderately expensive club/training road bike. Track bikes are very simple with no brakes and fixed gears, no derailleurs. The reason it's a club bike? In the racing world (where I used to reside) when you're not a sponsored rider, your racing ride is usually moderately priced and easily reparable. Crashes happen...a lot! Your club/training ride might be sweet (and expensive) but you would never risk it in sprint finish. I broke 2 frames in one weekend once. Crashed out mid race on Saturday when a exhausted and lapped cat5 guy ran into my rear derailleur and ripped off the drop out. Bought a new frame (Cannondale) that evening, swapped out the parts and raced on Sunday. Got caught up in a big final sprint crash and cracked the head tube. Expensive weekend! The pro's are sponsored and don't pay for their bikes, so they race the really high end stuff. Both on the track and the road
