I had a Bob Jackson with a brake bridge brazed only on one side during the bike boom days. My teammate at the time, Tom Ritchey, repaired it for me and didn't rib me too badly for not buying a frame from him instead. Ah, hindsight!
As for the "Cinelli" I like the fork crown. Round blades might not be ideal for a road bike but I sure like the look.
