Weren't most trackers just whatever road bike you had ridden offroad, with cowhorns and as fat as tyre as frame allowed? I did see the commercial 'tracker' story, didn't see much success did it?

That's the one that brought the trackers to our attention. That's a fine looking bike, I prefer that to the double tube of the Dirtbomb frame.
