How do you know about the "friendship"?
Cinelli did not want to share his brand. It is actually a modern phenomenon, being exclusive, if you compare it to FB putting anyone's brand on a hub. Very early Cinelli branded his stems with other brands, Legnano being the most frequent, but that ended in the 50s.
Seems Colnago found a vendor to do his bidding, Cinelli did not dilute his brand. Why would there be ill will?
