pista concept frameset!!??

so lately i have been in the market for a pista concept frameset (any year) but am having terrible luck with finding one anywhere. are there any online stores that have any in stock that anyone can recall. i have frequented ebay as well as craigslist with no luck as well. thanks for any future help!

There is this really cool website called google. The address is www.google.com.

I just visited that site and searched for "pista concept frame" and what do you know, I found just what you are looking for in the very first link!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

why dont we refrain from mocking me by saying i dont know how to use the internet until somebody actually locates a frameset in stock. i have searched yahoo and google numerous times and have made tons of phone calls with no success.

I'll vouch for the OP in saying that just because something shows up in stock at a webstore, doesn't mean it really is.

Actually they say:

9/18/07: The first batch of framesets sold out quickly and our July order is now well overdue. But, we've been assured that our batch of frames has now been shipped. It is expected to land at U.S. Customs shortly. Allow about 10 days more to get here. Most of this shipment is already sold, but email us your name, address, and phone if you would like to go on the backorder list. sales@bikyle.com

which means they expect it in stock soon...

thanks alot guys for the help, bikyle.com is sold out and has a waitlist too long to even think of joining. colonelbikes.com is not an online retailer (which is really weird as they are advertising bikes and prices, but once you click on their homepage it says in red lettering that they dont do online sales)

maybe you should try getting a different frame. There are better frames for the same money, but if you really want a Pista concept, then you gotta get a Pista concept. My advice is just keep an open mind and don't lock in on one frame/brand. Bianchis are nice, but they're also not what they used to be.

I heard from one of the local dealers in town that Bianchi is discontinuing the Pista Concept. That may be leading to the shortage.

On a related note, you might look at one of several smaller companies that offer similar framesets.
