Well the stock Pista Concept comes with a Sugino 75 bb which is only available in English threading AFAIK. Probably want an actual owner to confirm that its definitely English. But all signs point to yes.

Pista campy??? it depends of the campy dude... new campy record pista uses 111 mms BB... old campys uses 107, 109... and depending on the frame even a 105 could fit just fine (jis tapper ok?).. what campy pista are u talking about?

U can get the sealed campy 111 (if u r talking about the new campy record) at ebay, even get a nice taiwanese one that is sealed like for half of the price at ebay9good quality not crap). BTW remember that campy is ISO tapper. U can get away with jis tapper also but u have to think longer hehe

UM
