Anyone have any experience or knowledge of Javelin frames? One of my guys sent me the link.

No Javelin's, but I've owned two 1970 AMC AMX's (the two seaters). Both 390, 4-speeds. One was Big Bad Blue with the factory "drag pack" the other was black & silver with all the options (AC, power steering, AND an 8-track BAYBEE!!!). 340 stock HP, lots o' aftermarket parts, and a 98-inch wheelbase combined with 19-21 year old kid addicted to speed = neither car survived. The Blue AMX turned 12.70's through the mufflers and on street tires at Union Grove Raceway back in the day (circa 1980).

I'm thinking about one of these to complement my Ottrott.

I had a Javelin arcole TT bike. It was well made, handled well. John Cobb played a big part in the frame design, so I think it was pretty well thought out from an aerodynamic standpoint, too.
I sold it this year when, after working on my TT postion for a few months, I got to the point where I needed a frame with a shorter headtube.
