get the Mercier, sounds like it fits you better, i like the green colored one, black is great too.  get one and start riding a real track bike vs conversion, you'll like it much better.  as for building it, focus first on the wheelset, not so much the brand or color, but just make sure its strong and true.  then focus on the drivetrain, get a good one that doesn't flex or bend under the torque of brakeless skidding/skipping.
but get a frameset if the opportunity is ripe, the weather is quickly improving, you'll want to have a
proper bike acquired/built for the summer riding/tricks season.  barspin ur new bike at skiddy hall foo!
