Bike Forums - Your Fixed Gear/SS Photos!

This is my new Pista. I know everyone's got one but I love it. Its only about a week old so its pretty stock, just the Specialized risers and Speedium tires on it. I'm waiting for new pedals. Its my daily commuter.

how does that reversed fork handle?

it will look better when I get the riser bars on it and the ame bmx grips I built it originally for time trial track events but I ain't that good so this one is for street and my khs will continue to be the track steed

That doesn't look like it needs a top tube protector.

the only problem i see with your bike is that it doesn't seem to fit you at all.

Also, it's not as if those extended top-tube protectors are for track racing; they're generally used for locking up around town, and given how easily aluminum dents, it makes sense to use one.

just picked this up at punch cycle. What to do? I could convert it, or maybe turn it into a neat SS/TT machine. or I could do the tasteful thing and fully restore it.

Quit trying to live above your means - you can't afford it.

looks cool, but that's about it.
sell it now before you spend a bunch of money on it and realize that you should have never bought it in the first place.
