Joker Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Got enough cash to get a pretty nice single speed bike now. It's all down to what bike... Finding a black Pista Concept has proven impossible so now i'm on the look out for something else. Anyone got any bright ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubbish heap two Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Got enough cash to get a pretty nice single speed bike now. It's all down to what bike... Finding a black Pista Concept has proven impossible so now i'm on the look out for something else. Anyone got any bright ideas? i've seen them out there, black frame w/ red lettering, so it's not completely impossible. you could also get a powdercoat job on a celeste green concept. are you trying to go for aluminum or what, joker? masi's http://www.masibikes.com/cycles/coltello_frame.php track frame is pretty nice, a guy i know from sf has that frame and his bike is light as hell.

HESHIANDET Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 yeah dog you need to clarify material, use, and price range. that bmx shit is crazy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joker Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 yeah dog you need to clarify material, use, and price range. Material - Aluminum or carbon Use - The idea is to have a bike that I can ride on the track from time to time but also use to get around town Price Range - $1000 or there'abouts Open to ideas about what to go for. I just don't know if I should drop loot on the frame and fork and use an okay group set and okay wheels or go with an okay frame and fork and hook up the nice wheels and group set. My mind wants all Campy and carbon frame and fork... my wallet says something different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HESHIANDET Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 this sickens me to say this but my homegirl works for fuji and she has an aluminum track frame they did all done up record and its actually nice. shit isnt some messenger noob rig, its pro track only status..prob beable to get that and do it up all record within your budget..

swedish erotica Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 i'm looking to do the same thing, joker. although starting august i will no longer be anywhere near a velodrome. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoiseuth Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 the black with red ones are pistas. pista concepts were black with celeste. find a deal, use the money you save on a powdercoat job as suggested. it seems to be all the rage anyway.

HESHIANDET Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 fuck all that shit. im back to hating track bikes. i cant take it anymore. did 40 today and totally crushed the fuck out of hills that used to kick my ass. i think all this cross training running and swimming is really helping hard.

Blaise Pascal Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Whats so sour bout the geometry???? i want to know, no bullshit, i do i would think those guys would design a decent bike but aparently you's dont think so like i said i dont know track bikes well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUNBUNBIGGY Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Looks like they're cruiser bikes with track parts. Ionno, looks like they'd be comfy for just cruising with the lady friend.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amorphic Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Track bikes have STEEP geometry, and very tiny amounts of rake. Those bikes have more rake than my geared road bike, and those bikes all have very shallow angles on all of the tubes. They're obviously made for hipster types that want a "track" bike for screwing around on, but never to actually be used on a track or raced legitimately. It seems like more and more of these bikes are being taken in the direction of "grown-up" bmx type bikes...riser bars and all that shit. No hate or anything Blaise, just saying. I fucking hate riser/flat bars on track bikes. Bullhorns or track drops only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
