Gorgeous! What work did you do to it?? Was the paint in that incredible condition when you picked it up? Would love to hear more.

I haven't posted here in a long time, but figured that I'd share some photos of my most recent build. The rose Cinelli that i posted here ended up being too small for me, and i sold it to a CR list member. But, i ended up picking this up, and finally rebuilt it. Just got it out for it's first real shakedown ride yesterday.. She's a keeper, for sure...
cheers,
Bob

I'm not sure if you were still active when I joined a few years ago, but beside your new Cinelli being gorgeous, I immediately noticed your weather and some familiar looking weeds along the canal banks... Always nice to see someone else down here in the valley with some good C&V appreciation. Cheers from Visalia, and happy holidays!

It's lovely Bob.
What I would do is organize a ride in NoCa to show it off a bit, Say October 2021.
Just sayin.

Bob, that bike came together beautifully! I'm envious.
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one to commit the sacrilege of installing clipless pedals and a gps mount on an otherwise vintage bike.

yes, measured CTC. The top tube is around 58.5. TT measurement is most important to me, but this is as tall as i like.
Hello Bob,
I'm not sure if you were still active when I joined a few years ago, but beside your new Cinelli being gorgeous, I immediately noticed your weather and some familiar looking weeds along the canal banks... Always nice to see someone else down here in the valley with some good C&V appreciation. Cheers from Visalia, and happy holidays!
