Wow! That Cinelli looks great. A classic steel frame without the goofy angled back, sloping top tube compact frame design that ruined the retro steel frame that Raleigh sold , a few years ago.

Bikes: 1989 Cinelli Supercorsa

I gotta say, I love that Laser Blue color. Not a fan of the rear dropouts, but get that the bike has to (sort of) change with the times.

The chromed lugs with tiny "winged C" stampings, fastback seat stays, spoiler bottom bracket and sloping fork crown all conspired to place this frame a notch higher in my mind than my 1986 Waterford Paramount.

The Laser Blue is beautiful, but when I picture the perfect vintage Cinelli, it's the OG silver finish.

Same, but the chrome lugs and other bits seem to pop a bit better against the blue rather than the silver.
