Haha, thanks again. Won't be looking at any pictures for a while. Too tempting :D
What can you say about the frame breakthenorm, is it worth it?

Definitely worth it. Stiff, responsive, and light. Trifecta.

the pista concept is definately a fun bike! i love mine. its actually easier saving up for one than it is to actually find one for sale. they're beautiful though!

a matte black concept frameset went for 750+ about two months ago on ebay. Good luck finding one.

Don't know if they're receiving orders on it yet, but it's worth a try calling- my friend got a regular pista not too long ago from them- they screwed up the order at first and gave him free extra tires to compensate.

That's in the States, right? I'm going to Milan, Italy and Lisbon, Portugal in a month and see if I can find any reasonable ones there. If not, ship it from the states.

the pista concept is indeed a nice frame. i liked my '04 when i had it, but the allure of the familiar flex of steel vs. the rigid ride of aluminum, swayed me to sell it.

pista concepts have been blowing up lately, going for top dollar on ebay. now is the right time to buy a different alu track bike.
