Used Bare Knuckle or Pista Concept

Does anybody know where I can find the cheapest Bare Knuckle or Pista Concept frameset? Anybody have a Bare Knuckles they'd be willing to sell me 300-350?


Thanks.

I think for that price range it might be better to look at the brassknuckle

for the low low price of $35 I will send the pissta concept through a bandsaw vertically so you can have two sides mounted on the wall!

Thanks.
You are simply not going to find either of those frames for that price, not even used, unless it is beat to hell.

For that kinda money you could almost get a new Soma Rush.

why do you specifically want those frames? because they are 'cool'? i mean, other than the fact they are both track frames they have nothing in common.

It's also equally suited for aggressive and quick handling in or around town with a drilled front fork to accept a brake caliper if needed.

It slopes so hard I think it's technically a secondary down tube.

I've seen two bareknuckle frames on craigslist for less than 100 dollars in the last month.
One had the seapost stuck in it and one had a small dent on the top tube.

this doesnt really answer your question i guess, but there's a store in new haven, connecticut that i was in a month or so ago and they were selling new bareknuckles for like 500 which is really good. the guy working there said they had them for like 2 years and were just trying to get rid of them. i almost picked one up just as an impulse buy for that price but couldn't bring myself to do it. if you're interested give the store a call.

That is a great price for the frameset but if they are old they might have cable hangers if that makes a difference to you.
