my approx ‘71 only has brazed on bottom bracket and chainstay guides.
don’t like clamp on waterbottle cages.
Based on observations I've made at Eroica and the information on this timeline Velo-Retro: Cinelli Timeline, 1974 is the first year with water bottle braze-ons. Note that I am confident in the age of this bike since it was given to me by the original owner who bought it in Naples, Italy.
