Bianchi retailers around the city

Hey hey.


I'm looking for a track bike and I'm considering a Pista.


I called Trek a little while ago and they no longer sell 'em. And I tried calling Pittsburgh Pro, but their number is disconnected.


Are there any other local shops that sell them?

Pistas are great bikes, but I'm guessing you haven't really looked into the myriad of other options out there for track/fixed gear bikes. I got a sweet Uno fixie from Bob at Iron City Bikes about a year and a half ago and he always has a few other brands at his shop on Bouqet street in Oakland. Also try Thick Bikes on 15th street in the Southside, custom bikes for a reasonable price.

Pareto, man you really look like Tom Selek!

The owner of that Pista stripped it down. It is sitting in my apartment, frame/fork/BB/headset/stem. He'd probably sell it cheap if you want to ad your own bars, wheels, and a crank set.


He stripped it for parts to build a very hip rainbow fixed conversion. The frame is very clean though.
