Harry Havnoonian Pista 54cm Aluminum track frame

Unique mid-90s Harry Havnoonian Pista frame. Aluminum tubing, steel fork. Seat tube is 52cm c-t-c, Top tube 54cm c-t-c. Cane Creek 1" threadless headset included (could also be used with threaded headset if desired, but fork would need to be cut to size and threaded). Flat crown fork with beautiful detail around fork tips. INCREDIBLY beefy rear triangle - I have no doubt this would be a killer race bike. Frame and fork are not drilled for brakes. Beautiful pearl white paint. Some minor paint chips, and a ding/very light dent on the downtube (pictured). All in all, an awesome track frame, modeled very closely after the famous Cannondale track of the era.
