Deda Pista's are annoying as hell. Absolutely no room for hand adjustments. But they look sweet :)

Get a KMC coolchain SL.

change the chain & throw in some road bars maybe? honestly, deda pistas are not comfortable for daily use.

what kind of chain would u recommend? i had some people tell me using half link chains are bad but none told me the reason why? to me it looks and seems just fine.


to me this are comfortable but then again i havent tried any other bars. what kind of bars would you suggest and whats the benefits of using a road drop bars instead of this ones?

i agree with rapide, try an silver kmc chain or something similar, personally i dont like coloured chains...

i also think that the deda bar isnt much comfortable for daily use (i have one also on my merckx) maybee you try an more ergonomic bar...

No nothing's wrong with using half link chain.. But coloured chains just doesn't really go well with your whole build.. Kinda messed it up.. Just like what blokk said on the comment above. Try HKK Vertex NJS chains, a bit pricey but they last forever.

Road bars gives you 3-4 hand positions, even 5 if you installed hoods. Compared to trackbars which only give you like 2 hand positions? I hate using trackbars (no offence), I tried using Nitto B123AA once for a pretty long distance ride and my back and palms hurt so bad. I'm never going back to trackbars anymore. I recommend FSA Wing Pro, 3T Ergova, and Pro Vibe 7s
