    62cm old frame. Cant put brake on fork tho as it has no hole, and won't be drilling one.
    I might get carbon 1" threadless fork for it and then change headset. Frame is italian so I found out I have to glue BB or smth. And it's just seems more and more hassle.

    Bianchi Pista Steel looks fantastic, but no brakes, will I be able to mount brake on it ? Any other suggestions ?
    I think it now comes with a front brake, it is listed in the spec.
    Front Brake: RC-466E
    Brake Levers: Leechi BL-250

    They leave it out of the picture to make it look better. Giant did the same with the Bowery, the drop bar Boweries are all pictured without brakes but they do come with them.

    I recently bought one of these: http://www.dawescycles.com/p-170-mono.aspx, mainly for commuting. I was looking for a traditional road geometry, single speed and a bike that can take a rack and mud guards (for commuting). I'm happy with it so far, although it comes with an 18T sprocket, which I'm changing to 17T (or possibly 16T).
