There was a post in about "Keirin approved" Campy parts recently which brings up a question: What distinguishes the sport of Keirin racing from other types of track racing. Also, how do the bikes and other equipment differ from conventional track racing items?

Lastly, my son is going to Japan as an exchange student soon. In what cities are the Keirin tracks located. I might ask him to attend a race and take some photos.

Thanks
