That would be interesting. I doubt it is lightweight though. Track frames should be heavy duty.

I think it depends on the parts used. It is only sold as a frame and fork. Although I could be wrong.

2.8 lbs in size 53cm according to this. The complete bike version looks pretty off the hook.

P.S. That weight is on the light side even for an aluminum road frame which normaly run 2.5 lbs on up.
Of course they listed a size 53, so the bigger sizes are no doubt heavier. Honestly heavier is better than light in my opinion for this sort of bike.
EDIT: for some reason when I google Pista concept it was giving me the 2004 Bianchi site which lists a frame only.

For those who were wondering, I found out my answer.
I took my bike to my buddy who works in a mail room and used his scale. Here is my bike:
Here are the readings:
With pedals (Time ATAC) - 16.8 lbs
Without pedals - 15.9 lbs
Darn! After looking at the photo, I realized that I forgot to take off the light before I weighed it. Oh well. It's close enough.

Looks really nice. I wish the regular Pista was celeste like that or even the grey color it used to be.
