FB Marketplace Cinellii - Model? Tubing?

I admittedly don't know much about Cinelli bicycles, but this one caught my eye. Anyone have any idea what model this might be, what tubing it was made from, etc.?

$500? I be surprised if it still there but even for only $500 that is a nasty looking bike. The chain and cogs could be worn and everything else needs a good brush up

Im no expert but it might be one of those fancy Centurions built by Cinelli.

If anyone buys it I’d be interested in swapping those ratty old single pivot brakes for some matching shiny dual pivot ones.

Still there, but seller just let me know it’s a 54 so much too small for me anyways. What are ‘monoplaners’?

Prettiest brakes Campagnolo ever designed.

The ones on "your" bike are the only true Monoplaners (Chorus) in the pretty rare graphite finish

Not sure about "true" but "rare", yes. With all the touch-ups, it looks like it has had a very hard life, still worth the asking if a real Cinelli and not a re-decaled Centurion.

At a glance, that looks to be the real thing. It's definitely not a Centurion Equipe if that what some of you were thinking. Some closer views of lugs, fork crown would help. But is it still a fake? I have never seen a Cinelli with a chrome bbkt shell. This could be some off make with paint & Cinelli decals.

BITD there were several framebuilders who made what might be termed replica Super Corsa frames

they did not badge them as Cinelli but rather as their own name

one recalled who did this was Pinzani

do not ever recall seeing a Cinelli with brake housing stops on the top tube, but there are numerous forum members far more Cinelli savvy...

perchance experts such as iab &. martl can comment

Chombi1,
Yes! Condition on this one would be an issue for me BUT if not heavily repainted price would be a staring point for negotiation.
