To be honest i've never heard of one, you would probably have to get a road frame and put a modified track wheel on it.
By modified i mean you would have to put in some spacers to get your chain line to be straight.0 -
If you're riding the bike on the road, then I'd go for converting a carbon road frame and using and eccentric BB or a rear wheel with a White ENO hub on the rear rather than using a carbon track frame with close-clearance and geometry less-suited to the road.Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..0

I'm sure Felt do one. wiggle had them on a decent discount a few weeks back, go check it out...Titus Silk Road Ti rigid 29er - Scott Solace 10 disc - Kinesis Crosslight Pro6 disc - Scott CR1 SL - Pinnacle Arkose X 650b - Pinnacle Arkose singlespeed - Specialized Singlecross...& an Ernie Ball Musicman Stingray 4 string...0

Ive seen a rider poncing round on a planet x carbon TT bike. You could give them a bell - bet they would do a track frame with a TT fork rather than a track fork to allow a brake.0

Doubt any track frame will take a rear brake though you really don't need one.0
