From Bike Radar web site:

Classic bars and 1A stem

Cinelli have also brought back three of their classic cockpit designs. First up is the aluminium Giro D’Italia ’64 bar, which is made from 6061 alloy to meet the latest EN standards but still shaped exactly like the original. With a 75mm reach and 140mm drop, it’s the ideal companion to a classic road bike.

The 1965 Criterium bar is also back, with its deeper drop (145mm) and further forward curve (82mm). In its day, this was the sprinter's bar of choice. Cinelli have recreated the original ‘milky’ anodised finish of the originals too.

The classic 26mm diameter bars need a stem, so Cinelli have brought back the 1A. It's now made from 6066 T6 alloy to meet EN standards but has the same simple, elegant design. It's available with the same ‘Milky’ finish as the bars, in lengths from 90mm to 130mm.

Suppose they will be retro priced? Used to be under $30 for a bar. Anyway, glad to see them available again.

These have been rumored for months. A check of the Cinelli site showed nothing currently available.

They are 26.0, if they are ever available, and I have a set of perfect 66-40's in 26.4 that I will never use, if someone wants them. Be glad to trade for 64-40's, double grooved, in like condition ;)

Go 66-46 or go home.
Glad to see the 65s, but is anyone going to make levers small enough to make them worth running?

Who wouldn't mind a modern version of those bends, without the sleeve that often creaked...

I also find it odd they didn't include the 66's or release the A1's in 140.
Good to hear from you again Jason! Hope your doing great!
