If your frame is stock then the answer is no. The pista has a threadless fork so it requires a threadless headset and a threadless stem.

You would need to get new fork and headset to use the stem (and ensure that the stem had a clamp diameter compatible with your bars).

Only other option is to get Bernie Mikklesen (or other competent frame builder) to convert your threadless fork to threaded, but its hardly worth it for a Pista.
