Built it myself. Project over 3G's and was a pretty penny. Well worth it!!!! as far as the 2 Aerospokes go and fat tires, i grew up riding BMX Bikes and the mag wheel look still gets me. Reason for building this bike: i just like to build bikes..... one of many....

Hmmm… not sure how I feel

Submitted by terrible_one49 on 08/25/2010.

Hmmm… not sure how I feel about this build. A few things that I question are the setback seat post and the totally jammed back seat rails. Do you really need all your weight that far back over the wheel? I thought maybe it's because you got a tall upper body… but then I see you have a little tiny short stem. Did you get this bike fitted when it was build? I don't think any bike fitter would do this though.

Secondly, I've never really liked road bars on track bikes.

Third, no foot retention on a fixed gear is foolish. I know you have a brake, but riding with cages or clipless pedals is the smart and more efficient thing to do.

lol! I grew up riding bmx

Submitted by Dean de las Alas on 08/26/2010.

lol! I grew up riding bmx bikes. I wasnt really trying to go for the light weight factor. I chose every single part of this bike down to each screw and bolt according to how I ride, and every component's size to my comfort. Coming from a Bmx backround I know and would agree it is totally not the traditional look or feel of a bike. but definately suites the way I ride.

Skids vs. gear ratio

Submitted by Olej on 08/25/2010.

That gear ratio will make you kill your rear tire in a month cause you'll have only one skid patch. Check it:

It's actually a single speed free wheel. COming from a bmx backround bike. I prefer it. plus i just had surgery on my knee and fixed would be too much stess on it.

Submitted by dynamic on 08/25/2010.

difference

Submitted by Dean de las Alas on 08/25/2010.

only difference was double butted welding reinforcement on the frame, the middle tube where the seat post goes is slightly thicker, the seat clamp is separate with a bolt setup, getting rid of the seat clamp stripping ordeal it being part of the frame with the older Pista concepts, and Bianchi decal is fatter.
