Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer?

What comes stock on a chrome pista?

I recently found a chrome bianchi pista and i've put an ad out on craigslist for someone to claim it if they can identify some defining characteristics. i just want to make sure the "defining characteristics" aren't actually just the stock parts (so somebody can't just list them off and claim it as theirs.)

Any cosmetic damage/ wear on the frame, components. Maybe a dealer sticker/ decal identification aswell...

Perhaps even the california bicycle license number if the bicycle has it? (I know for sure UC police require it, although they do not enforce it); which means it might not have one.

Ask for the serial code under the bottom bracket and a picture of the person with the bike.

EDIT: And what happypills said.
