  • Isn't that the one that costs an arm and a leg?
    Nice though

    £90, yeah it does, but the subtle lugged-style fork (well, it doesn't look like a proper lugged one) give the bike a classier look, never liked the standard fork on the Pista, look too much like an 90's cheap MTB one.

  • The best thing I've put on my bike by far are the Time Atacs...

    Know what you mean re: classier look.
    But reckon as I've changed so much I'd be better holding off, saving up and upgrading the Frame and Forks together.

  • the green on the frame to cover up the rainbow bonanza which bianchi seem to favour has been the best alteration Ive seen to a pista to date. It looks like ribbon but could well be electrical tape...enlighten me

  • Electrical tape over the rainbow on pistas = megafuckingwin.

    Mate did black over his, looks so much sleeker.

  • Yep, leccy tape, although it's only temporary as I'm planning a full re-spray with vintage Bianchi decals and chrome details on chainstay and forks.

  • nice swan

  • howdy!

    i posted this on another thread but was pointed to this one.

    i was also told that i would be drilled about the fact i am primarily a roadie...but as i said fixie curious!

    anyway, i love bikes!

    my current collection consists of:
    '86 bianchi Reparto Corse with record and delta brakes

    winter bike: cannondale caad 9 with a mix of sram force and bits n pieces...i am running a SCOR fork with disc brake...awesome in the wet

    race bike: cannondale super six ultmate with red group and soon with lew clincher wheels with tune hubs- 6.7kg (not bad for a size 60)

    so i'm thinking the next bike is to build a fixie out of my master frame...
