***Profile updated*** New pictures, switched to fixed.

I walked into my local bike shop and I saw something sparkling in the back. After moving the Oury grip display and rolling an entire rainbow of Velocity Deep V's out of the way, I spotted this beauty. I felt like the kid in Willy Wonka when he found that golden ticket. From what I have gathered trolling on bike forums, this is one of only 5 Bianchi Pista frames in the Unites States. I feel truly honored and I will ride it with pride.

I am still trying to figure out how to do trackstands and skid stops. Every time I try to skid stop I almost fly over my handle bars. Does anyone have any advice for me?!

I can assure you this is not

I can assure you this is not a joke.

I had grown tired of dealing with all the bike amateurs on this site. You have no idea what you are talking about. This is quite possibly the most expensive and rare bike on Velospace. People are being ripped off all over the country with fake "Pistas."

Every single part on this bike is NJS, even the chain. I know a guy who takes all of my parents and converts them to NJS for a part. Everyone wastes money buying all these NJS parts from eBay when they could just convert it themselves.

Please go back to riding your non-NJS Leader frame. You don't have to try to insult me and my bike just because you can't have it.

Haha my leader is the beater

Haha my leader is the beater the cheap bike sayy hello to my new bike

Your pos can even compare to it (new bike) haha

convert to njs? WTF does that mean. You can't convert anything to njs. Do you even know what njs is? Shoot I've got more njs on my bike then yours that's forsure check it. Out

Your shit isn't even Japanese,campy,lugged,brazed,or even awesome tubeing nor is it even handmade!!

One word Cheap!!

This is one of only 5 in

This is one of only 5 in america. Would you be willing to let it go for 0,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000??

You are correct, it is quite

You are correct, it is quite rare. Almost as rare as my NJS Bianchi Pista.

Haha

I like your spoke card(board)!

OHHHHHHHHH you couldn't get

OHHHHHHHHH you couldn't get the pictures of your EXTREMELY RARE Bianchi Pista from your phone? I'm pretty sure I predicted this would happen. Stop trying to pretend you have one of the rarest frames in the world. If anything, you have a fake Pista. You shouldn't feel sorry for yourself. A lot of people have been ripped off. It's not your fault! You're not the victim!

the two of you must be

the two of you must be related. clinton

I would really appreciate it

I would really appreciate it if you e-mailed me all the pics but I already know you are going to photoshop them all and make them "grainy" and blame it on your Blackberry. Like I said so many times already, I've seen it before!!! It's like you trying to say you own a Bentley and you are going to take pictures of it AND ride around the city and take pictures of all the OTHER Bentley's too! HA! Just give it a rest and sell your bike. Who knows, you might find someone as gullible as you and make a few bucks on your fake Pista.

PT Barnum?

I don't know what PT Barnum is, but I feel like you are making some sort of PT Cruiser joke about my bike and it's not funny. If my bike were a car, it would be a... well I don't really know much about cars so I don't know what it would be but I do know it would be AWESOME.

Well if you really had a

Well if you really had a Pista I think you would have pics up already! You're probably going to Google "Rare Bianchi Pista" and steal those pictures to put up on Velospace. I know how it works, I've seen it before!!! So many "biters" and "haters" out there who won't respect one of the rarest NJS frames to ever be released. It's sad.

delete

looks like someone deleted some of their comments...

SURE DID

SURE DID

He must have realized he

He must have realized he owned a fake Pista.

you are quite possibly the

you are quite possibly the funniest person ever. your bike is my friend now. clinton

it keeps getting better! you

it keeps getting better! you know he is messing with all of you right? well he is isn't he? he has to be. there's no other explanation clinton

Explanes? Do you mean

Explanes? Do you mean ex-planes? I was never a pilot? I'm a little confused because you started out talking about planes and then you start talking about my Aerospoke?

I would consider selling you the Aerospoke but it's NJS (one of only 10 made in the past 7 years) and it cost me well over two thousand dollars and it took months of negotiations just to get my hands on one. Maybe you'll get lucky and find one on your own.

Wow I don't know what I

Wow I don't know what I could possibly say that hasn't already been said. Are you retarded? Your riding Freewheel, of course you can't skid or track stand and you wonder why you almost fly off your bike. You are disgrace to the biking community and need to be put out of your misery. Lastly you dumb fuck-tard Chrome is a company you wouldn't dip your bag in liquid chrome you fool. You only need common sense to realize a bag wouldn't be made out of chrome.

The Grip YOUVE BEEN SERVED!!!!!!!

chrome

where can I get one of those chrome bags? do they dip them in chrome only, or can you get different colors?

NO I AM NOT RETARDED!!! Why

NO I AM NOT RETARDED!!! Why does everyone keep saying that?!

I took my bike to a local Bike Source (The best bike shop in America!!!) and asked them to take off my freewheel and give me an NJS fixed cog. I am sick and tired of riding around on a non-NJS freewheel. It's cheap and it looks stupid. Now you can stop yelling at me for trying skidstops!!!

Well I learned that lesson about Chrome the hard way. A few weeks ago I went to a local paint shop and asked them to paint my backpack chrome. At first they didn't understand and thought I was joking, but after I handed them 250 in straight cash money they stopped asking questions. Four weeks later my bag was finally done. It was heavy, uncomfortable, and I couldn't open it up anymore. My multi-tool and Aerospoke shine cloth are still stuck inside. :(:(:(

Oh, DanielSB90. I feel so

Oh, DanielSB90. I feel so bad for you. Your name must stand for "Daniel Sucker Bro 90," because I am 99% sure you are riding a fake Pista.

I looked at BianchiUSA.com and immediately my Netscape browser gave me a trojan warning... IT'S A FAKE SITE!!! Why would it be called BianchiUSA when Bianchi's are Italian track frames!!! They are selling FAKE FRAMES!!! I wish I could get Velospace to post up a big warning to everyone out there. I feel like more and more people are getting ripped off every day and it saddens me.

i am curious now. does

i am curious now. does anyone know wtf they are talking about? i am going to do some research. i don't have a computer so it might take awhile.wait... i'm on my computer now.

?

I promise this is not to be an ass, im just curious.
Is this some type of special edition Pista?
Like a special year or something?
Just wondering because the amount of Bianchi Pistas in my city is overwhelming.
If you are not riding a khs flite 100 in Louisville than you are riding a pista.
In one shop alone there are 3 new pistas that i know of.
Please dont take this the wrong way... im just wondering.

I don't even know where to

I don't even know where to begin!!!

First off, every Pista is basically a special edition Pista, there are only 5 in the United States!!! If you see that many Pistas in your town, I am 100% they are all cheap knockoffs. I have seen many people who powdercoat their frames and buy cheap decals off eBay and turn their SE Draft into a Bianchi Pista. If you take measurements on the geometry of these frames, you will realize they are not Pistas!!!

You should report your local bike shop that is supposedly selling 3 Bianchi Pistas. They are fake!!! People are getting ripped off. If you see one for under 00, it's a fake.

I am not trying to "boast" or "be cocky" by showing off one of the rarest track frames ever made. I got lucky and happened to be in the right place at the right time. It's like I hit the lottery.

i would lol if i wasnt olo

some great comments, too funny, thanks!

holy shit i have never

holy shit i have never laughed so hard. i like the bike. i like to think i can read people well but on this site it is often hard to tell. keep riding

...

mr blonde 373 u forgot something GET A FUCKING TOECLIPS

...

mr blonde 373 u forgot something GET A FUCKING TOECLIPS

what the

i see these frames everyday in craiglist and other shit, this is not rare, Bianchi pista concept 2008 is super rare it's all sold out

hmmm

If you see them on Craigslist for sale all the time they are most likely local or Nigerian scammers. They lure people into empty warehouses to beat and rob them, leaving them with no money and even worse, no Bianchi Pista.

Everyone should be very careful when attempting to deal with someone selling a Pista. I would recommend asking to meet them at a Police station. That way you can safely buy one of the rarest frames in the world! It's going to cost you though, these things can go for thousands!!!!!!!!

lol

stop trying to act like you're the coolest kid on the block

they are NOT rare

You were borne without a

You were borne without a sense of humor

so rare

this bike is icy hot stuntas.

so cold.

so rare.

Cool Kids on the Block?

I'm not trying to act like a cool kid. This is a place to come and showcase your bike, and I happen to have an extremely rare frame. That link you posted is probably either fake or another scam. If you are trying to buy my frame, I won't sell it, and if you are trying to buy one from that site I would advise against it. You might get ripped off and 0 is a lot lose. I will keep an eye out, and if I see another Bianchi Pista for sale (it might be 6-10 months before I see one) I will let you know.

and

also i hope that comment about buying a pista was meant as a joke.

hahahaha

you got me.

lol

hey

y'all are retarded, they make hella these frames every year l

your statement is true

your statement is true but they only make them every OTHER year and they release most of them in overseas, that is why it is such a rare frame here in the United States. I actually had a guy come up and offer me 00 for the frame by itself. I was flattered but the frame is obviously worth much more than that. If I ever get offered k i might consider the offer

hmm

so I wouldn't say they are "ultra rare".

buy some clips/straps and track pedals if you want to learn to skid.

oh wait

you can't skid on a freewheel newbie haha

Get rid of the BMX pedals,

Get rid of the BMX pedals, get track style ones with clips (preferably 4 gates and double straps) and you will be able to skid without dying.

...

or you could just use your brake......

get rid of bmx?

well those pedals help me when i am doing tricks and i'm learning some new grinds. it's really tough because i dont want to chip my paint but i've got some great grinds on film i'm going to put them on youtube soon i will put a link on here when the video editing is done. it might be a few weeks though b/c i want it to be perfect!

I still don't understand

I still don't understand what makes this bike rare, there are definitely more than 5 '08 pista's in the U.S. My local track specialty shop has 7 of them

oh em gee

i got really lucky and found one of the other 5 pistas!! i cant believe it. i also have that same problem with skid stops. i think it must be something mr. njs did when he built these amazing machines.

You are!!!

You are all pussy's. Go fuckin ride your bike......

the FLOOR

nevermind the BIKE... look how shiny that FLOOR IS!! what is that, mop-n-glow? mr clean? pine sol? shit hook me up

It's definitely Mop-n-Glow!

It's definitely Mop-n-Glow!

I cant't believe you did

I cant't believe you did this to that beautiful piece of Italian heritage. Please build it back up with gears, like it was intended for you puppy killer!

Are you daft? Italian

Are you daft?

Italian heritage? Build it back up with gears?

Do you see the rear drop out? Do you see the word "PISTA" on it? Do you see any cable guides? Do you see any mounts, no less an appropriate place for a derailleur?

Italian heritage my ass. This was built last year as the "riser bar" Bianchi Pista (D2 range) version rather than the chrome drop bar if I'm not mistaken. Not much heritage, huh?

gears?

gears on a track bike? lol nub

skid tutorial - 1. get

skid tutorial -
1. get chrome bag
2. get skinny jeans
3. go to coffee shop
4. lock your bike outside
5. talk about your siq fixie to people

"siq fixie" made me laugh

"siq fixie" made me laugh

THANKS!

I have a few questions about your suggestions.

- My seatpost and drop bars are already chrome, if I dip my bag in chrome I think it will be too heavy, not to mention uncomfortable. Is this a necessity?!
- I had the skinny jeans but I cut them off to about 5 inches above the knee (5 inches below the crotch). They are still skin tight, does this count?!
- I spent all my money on my new NYC Pocket Kryptolock, I don't have any money for coffee!

"Chrome" is a brand of bag.

"Chrome" is a brand of bag.

?

Are you sure? I think he means dipping my bag or painting it "chrome" to make it look like it's part of my bike.
