Cinelli ?
Hi All,
I just posted a question in the Vintage Forums, but thought that some of you could help me out.

I purchased a late 80's early 90's Cinelli off eBay and I'm not sure that it's authentic.
Thanks

Well if it's already purchased I guess it's a mute issue. I mean what would you do at that point if it isn't authentic?

More out of curiosity. I knew that it might be suspect, but I liked what I saw. I'm wondering how much money I'm willing to drop into fixing it up.

agreed though, if it's already purchased, and for $70... if it isn't authentic, only you will know

as you say, if it's got the Cinelli embossing on the fork, I suppose that's as much as you can do, and as those other guys said in the vintage forum, for less than $200 you can't really go wrong.
I know it doesn'e mean everything, but Columbus Thron was a bit of a brick of a tube set.
It's just basic 25CrMo4
