Why are you going to use the Pista wheelset on an older and crummier frame? It just doesn't seem to make any sense to take solid track parts off of a nice track frame and strap them to 30 year old low-to-mid-level road frame.
So what..parts are parts and you can slap them on whatever you want as many times as you want. Whatever suits your needs. Conversions are generally better for the road than track bikes. I think if I had a real track bike (which I don't, but I'd like to have one) I'd still want a conversion to ride most of the time, or a FG/SS frame with road geometry. Not all of us ride fixies in huge cities, weaving through dense traffic. Generally, theres a reason why road bikes have different geometry than track bikes...its more suited to most road conditions.
