I bought a Cinelli Head Badge off of Ebay and wonder what model it was made for? I'm waiting, but impatient so I used Adobe Photoshop to superimpose the head badge on my 95 Cinelli Super Corsa, what do you think? Here's a picture of the Cinelli without the head badge and a picture with Photoshop editing.

Here's pictures of the Cinelli Head Badge front and rear view. Any information would be appreciated, but in any case I think it's cool and will look great on my Cinelli!

Its a not too authentic looking repro: the originals were oval with a black background. Putting it on that Cinelli will look silly.

There have been many versions made over the years, but the one you purchased was not one of them. I don't however see anything wrong with fitting it to your bike, You have obviously accepted that it won't be original, so at this point choose something that you like.

Personaly i prefer the logo that's on your headtube right now, but it's your bikes, the new badge does look interesting though.

I like both the C-logo and the old-school decal. Both would look fine.
I made the equipe logo because I wanted to incorporate Centurion.
