• Hi,

    I`m planning to build a very naughty fixed/track/pista bike with steel frame. The idea is to have the comfort of a steel framed bike for daily commute to work but very light weight so I can also use on weekend training sessions and some local crits as well.

    The options I`m considering are below:

    1. Colnago Master Pista - No details on the year, tubing or weight. Waiting on seller to send me those details but Im a colnago fan and used to have one in the past with gears and ride so smooth that Im considering. Not to mention beautiful work finish.
    2. Cinelli Mash work - This one is a option because it has the same proposal that Im looking for, however I dont consider to be the most beautiful frame as it is too multi purpose and spacings for tires and between tires is huge! Also, I don`t have any specifics on which Columbus tubing is being used as Cinelli is not clear and states to be a collaboration between both brands...
    3. BrickLaneBikes - La Piovra Classic Pista - This one is beautiful. Just would like more info around tubing used (columbus Cromor or Thron) and weight. Also to know if fits my proposal?
    4. Brick Lane Bikes - La Piovra Max Track - this seems to be the best/top option from the ones listed, as it is the more expensive, but I would like more info around weight (55 or 56cm) and stiffness as I will need a frame the is light and resists to daily used. Could not find much information around this frameset, no photo of bikes builds nothing at all... please share any information.

    With all the above said, would like to hear opinions from any person who already had any of the above or know someone who did to give me impressions.

    Also, any link with articles, photos informations around any of the models above, please share as well.

    I`m happy to receive other suggestions as well. :)

    Ill be in UK entire December and Im planning to purchase my frame once I`m there. Looking for a 55 or 56cm steel frame with characteristics above.

    Cheers,
