When I discovered the world of fixed gear bikes few years ago, I immediatly fell in love with Bianchi's Pista Concept. However, it was a "too hard to get your hands on" frameset so I built a conversion instead.However, I was catched again few months later by the idea of getting one when I saw it was available at bikyle.com. Inspired by the fixed gear freestyle expansion, I decided to build a "trick oriented" bike. I went with a mix of BMX and track racing parts to create this ultimate Tarck bike which was kindly nicknamed by my friends: The Hybrida Concept. I was pleased with the visual aspect of the bike but, it had too many defaults. Too slow for high speed mashing and too weak for serious tricking. After 2 months of riding I decided to get rid of the majority of the parts including the frame. So here's my spoiled my Pista Concept

Looked good man. Understand what you mean about going fast on a trick setup though.
