So I just got a chrome 07 Pista a few days ago. I haven't ridden it more than a few miles but I love the feeling of a fixed gear. The only thing is, I've been seeing some Pake bikes on the net and have been having doubt (although it's purely ascetic). I think the shop where I bought the Pista carries Pake stuff, although I have no idea if they would even consider doing some sort of trade-in/return. However before I do anything so drastic I was hoping to hear your opinions on which is a better bike. I don't dislike the Pista's look, but the black with removable decals just seems so clean. Thanks for the help, and any other good fixie advice for a beginner would be appreciated as well.
