For Sale: '08 Bianchi Pista 53cm

For sale is my Bianchi Pista, 2008 model, 53cm size. The 2008 range featured a more "aggressive" geometry than the current model (I think it changed in '09 or '10), same as the '06 model here.

This was my first fixed wheel bike, which I bought 3 years ago to use for commuting and a few longer rides. I haven't used it that much in the last year, and since I'm moving abroad, this has to go. It's a really fun bike to ride, and can be used on the street or track.

The bike comes with a front brake, but no pedals. Note that it is not drilled for a back brake. The gearing is 48 x 19 (3/32" setup), which is 67 gear inches with the 165mm cranks and 700cx23 tyres. The only non-stock parts are the stem (on-one) and rear cog (19t EAI).

The chrome is in great condition. The decals are in good condition, with a few scrapes from being locked up. No dings or dents; never crashed. Some cracking has occurred to the chrome plating around the seatpost bolt due to overtightening (see final pic).

Do you know if any of the chrome pistas are drilled?

They're all drilled at the front, but not the back. If you want to run single speed, you could use a clamp-on brake at the rear.

PM'd.
