The definitive list of lists

Hi guys,

I would like to buy my first fixed gear, and I hesitate between two: the Bianchi Pista Via Brera 2010, and the Prima Foffa. I know that they are really different bikes, but I would like to know which one is the best to use after work and during the week-ends to have fun on it. You do not seem to like Foffa bikes, but I would like to have quite an objective opinion...
Thanks and sorry for my english (I am French)

Foffa have completely turned around a damaged reputation, so you can buy from them with confidence.

However, Bianchi is a renowned and revered brand, with an enviable reputation. Resale value of the Bianchi would be far, far higher.....if that says anything to you.

Thank you GA2G.

I've got a Foffa Prima which I absolutely love; I only have good things to say about it, and I notice that Dani has introduced a lot more options to the Prima builds now.

I really like the Bianchi Pista Via Condotti and had I had an extra £300 odd to chuck at it when I was buying then it would have been a serious contender. Was a bit gutted to see them going for £550 in Evans last week. But never mind -

Hi guys,

I finally made my choice and bought the Bianchi Pista Via Brera this afternoon. It is really nice, but I bought a brown Brooks saddle and I would like to buy a bullhorn (and I will cover it with leather). i know that they are threads with bullhorns, but I did not find what I wanted to know: will bullhorn of the Charge Plug fit? I do not know what size of bullhorn to buy (I do not want it to be too large). could you help me?

Have you looked at Nitto and Profile Design, to name two brands of bullhorn bars?

Hi Guys
Just joined the forum as I'm a greater lover of single speed, so much so that I decided to sell them as well, Found an Italian frame builder making beautiful SS city bikes . .. question is .. how do I get onto your fantastic list ??

Thanks

Start by giving us a website link, and showing what you are selling.......

OK -- try this http://bikesales4u.com/ bikes are on the front page. Thanks

I've had a look at your link, and it shows Dotbike as one of the retailers? They're already listed in the Online Shops list. I'll add your link after other forum users recommend it, or you've been established for a while longer. It's for the protection of our users, so that they only do business with recommended companies. Hope that appears fair.

Thanks for looking. Yes we have Dot Bike who sell the Valdora tri bikes but not our SS bikes as yet. Thats certainly fair and thank you. If anyone on here is interested in my SS bikes just PM me and I'll do a good deal for Lfgss members.

so... i want to ride a 28c tyre. and like to bunny 'op a few speed bumps and curbs.

will these things take a wee bit of abuse or are they purely track wheels ?

They'll take abuse, and are built by a very well respected member of this forum. Contact him regarding any special concerns.

apc, you would have been better off if you had searched for VISP in the extremely useful search function.

VISP frames thread.

sorry, new here..

No problem; it takes everyone a little while to learn their way around.

emailed him on sunday. still no reply.

it is the week after glastonbury though..............

i think it was the year 2000. took me a fortnight to recover.

hope the feller is alright ?????

He's a busy guy, but sound.

any chance of a 'list of threads' list?

sometimes I'd like a point of reference

There is a chap on here that goes by the name of Velocio. Spam him and ask if he'd like to help you out with that. He never does anything all day and night, so I'm sure he'll say Yes.
