Another Question, R**dies...

Who are the well-stocked Bianchi dealers in and around town? Thank you. Thats all.

[Griz]

Discovery Cycles on W. Anderson lane is a Bianchi dealer. they also have a second shop on W. 24th near UT. If you need to do some price comparisons, several shops in Houston deal Bianchi.

[hoopshot]

Britton Bikes in San Antonio is a Bianchi dealer and seems
more willing to deal than Discovery. They are also supposed
to be a really good LBS. I was going to buy from them when
I found a really good deal on a 2001 model on the web.

Your company must be doing pretty well during these tougher times. ;)

Heeelll no. I'm going cheap so I can save $$$. Pista's an inexpensive bike and should be since it has no brakes and one gear. I live cheap to afford bikes and bike accessories. It works!

:D

Ozone carries em' and some little shop next to Sun and Ski does also. I've seen them at the little bike shop east of Discovery also. In all I think there are four dealers in austin. Check out www.bianchibikes.com. Cool site and plenty of info. I'm looking at their alloy SS for my next purchase.

while visiting portland for a few days I noticed a bunch of commuters on stripped down track bikes. no brake, simple bull horn type bars with no bar tape even. THAT'S what you need. Trust me. hehe. I hear it's easier to pull a long trackstand on a fixie.

Yeah. I plan on trying cowbars or whatever they're called. And the bike has no brakes. Dun need em. I think the word 'trackstand' comes from track racing. Or I bet it does. Yeah.

[Anita Handle]
