The graphic palette draws its inspiration from historical Cinelli colors brought forward onto a modern street racer.
All sizes available, and ready to ship this week. Or come into the shop Saturday, and build yours right here in San Francisco. The first batch is limited in this delivery, but the bolt frame will be available throughout 2012, along with the Histogram set!

My next bike haha.
Noob question, according to the description:
How is this more comfortable when just by eyeballing it, the geometry looks pretty agressive?

Serious question: what is the advantage, if any, of the negative sloping top tube?

Yes, it's the 2010 Bolt geo with a third paintjob iteration. If you look at the chart it's not as aggressive as the histogram.
I like this paintjob. Like a MASH Supercorsa. I can dig it; it's not so loud. But hate away.

I think Mash has been sharing too much of their PBR with the suits at Cinelli.

anyone have a link to the geo chart of this one vs the normal mash? I'm trying to find out how this could be more comfortable, looks almost identical from a quick look
love the paint job though. this and the histogram are some very nicely painted biked, I just don't know if I like the paint enough to live off ramen noodles for a month

Lol I saw the picture and I was like "wait this looks like a Mash" and then I read the description and was like "oh wait it IS a Mash".

This is how I felt. I kinda liked the histogram color, but that weird pixel thing going on always was like 'ehh' for me. The green and the grey/white mash's weren't really my thing either, but this solid grey looks very sharp to me. would hit it.
