Cool, thanks for the tips! Yeah, not being able to coast will get some getting used to. BUt then again, i like to pedal going downhill. mostly to build up speed to carry me back up the next hill.

So would a Bianchi Pista be a good first SS bike to try out? I see them at my LBS and they just look nice and the Bianchi quality seems to be good. Plus they are relatively cheap (read: I may just be able to talk my wife into letting me get one since it's waaayy cheaper than the Cervelo or Look 585 I've been looking at! haha!
