    Keep an eye on the bottom bracket. When I did track racing back in the 80s, it seemed like it was usually a Benotto that started a kilo with a loud crack when the BB shell broke away from the seat tube, forcing the rider to have to find another bike in a hurry. Maybe that was just their track bikes, but it tended to put people off Benotto bikes in general.
