Spread Cinelli SC Finished!

[jzisk]

Slowly by hand and foot alone; 130mm and true to +/- beyond detection. Thanks for all help. Here 'tis. My sub-par photo doesn't do it justice. There is filing at the lug points and crisp brazing everywhere. Was it Camilotto who built this 1984 frame? Whoever, it was nicely done.

Those are awesome frames. Very rare to see one in white.

I wondered. I had not seen one in that color-- a creamy white with a faintest hint of rose! Anyway, the weather right now is awful for a bike like this... Hurry up, springtime.

That looks like a titanium post and ti King cages from perfection.

beautiful!

It's a 3T Dorico LTD carbon post, but an Ibis Ti stem. The bottle cage is an Arundel Dave-O; is that what you meant? King headset, Sotto Voce. What else gets called a cage? I feel dumb.

I love the current build, but I think it would be even better with a ti post to match the titanium stem. I would also use a titanium king water bottle cage. As already stated however, I love it as is.

Got it!

I have an '84 as well, spread to 130. It's the only 'good' bike I ever bought new.

I think I've mentioned before that I'll never sell mine.

Also, I was never able to find out who was building in 1984. I have a 2002 Nuovo Supercorsa that was built by Losa, it's one of the most remarkable bikes I've ever ridden. It is fully deserving of the name. Try to find one if you like Cinelli's.

Titanium seatpost and a Cinelli Grammo Titanio stem would be the mutt's nuts.

Nice SC (and the others, too).
Is that cute lil' placemat being used as an oil drip guard? If so, no need, since it's not a British bike, ya know. :beer:

Got the Grammo on the Serotta Ti. You've all convinced me to find an apprpriate Ti pin.

And the mat's for the cats, so they don't destroy the big one.

I have a 120 Grammo that's never been mounted, but has shop wear, 26.4 If interested, PM me.

I am in the process of making a list of FS stuff that I just need to move. Three pages so far, and I just found another box o'stuff.

I like the Ibis Ti stem that's on that SC very much. But (somewhat OT) I'm looking at a no-name Hong Kong Ti seatpost on eBay-- Looks expertly welded, and has some offset. What do you think?

I wouldn't risk buying something cheap on the places where I touch the bike..pedals, seatpost, handlebars/stem..IMHO..hurts a lot when it breaks.

I had a OE ti fork, made by a reputable Russian ti maker of ti bike stuff that 'looked expertly welded' and it failed/split..Lucky I was barely moving when both legs split on the back.

YMMV, IMHO and all that.

Thanks. Good advice.

screw the grammo, keep the ibis, its a much better looking stem. But yes get a TI seatpost, or at least a silver post and you are done. Great looking ride
