I come to this forum often enough that I feel kind of vouyeristic just reading everyone elses stuff and not participating myself.
I am in the middle of deciding whether I should buy a gang green pista and strip it of its stickers to avoid robbery- as well as glances from hipsters pretending to be messengers who are supposing I am a poser (which, by the way, was something I was concerned about when I bought my first pair of Vision Street Wear sneakers back in 88: I was nine)

Ive learnt on here that the Pista is not a great bike, but right for the price.
I figure I could run it into the ground and begin to build it up properly as time goes on.


The other option which costs more money would be to purchase an EAI Bareknuckle and build it not to exceed over eight hundred dollars. This, of course, will cost more money,

Ive been riding fixed gear only for about a year now. I havent had a new bike in a long time and am wondering if it is worth saving a little extra money and then buy the bareknuckle with a decent set up?

If anyone has advice please reply.

thanx
