I found a used Cinelli Vigorelli for sale $600 or i was planning to aventon cordoba $419-500 cause i was gonna upgrade some parts. both of these bikes come with a carbon fork same style handle bars and such i just wanted to know if i should go up the hundred dollars. Thanks for the advise.

It boils down to what components each bike is built up with/condition of the Cinelli, but I'd be more inclined to say the Vigorelli.

If you can get a vigorelli for 100 bucks more than an Aventon, that is the correct decision. Only thing that would change that is if it had some sort of severely structurally compromising damage.

I'm one of many riders that love the vigorelli. I doubt there's that much intimacy with aventons.

When I see someone riding an Aventon I say to myself, oh, cute. When I see a Vigorelli I have to hop off the saddle because it hurts my erection.

In a few years when cinelli starts being lame and Aventon is the best we'll all look back on this thread.

'16 cordoba is the new '93 Cannondale. Stock up now guys.

Click on the number of votes to the left of the percentages in the poll and you will see who voted for what.

Pitchforks are in the broom closest next to the stockpile of chili mango slices.

In proper bike forums fashion, consult the advice thread after purchase.

Can't wait for the NOS aventon builds in 2025, NOS Origin8 cranks, 800mm risers and Archetypes to formula hubs.

The little guy making all the Italian stuff @ Campy are all underpaid eastern europeans while only the big cigar smoking bigwigs are Italian. Sram red is made in Taiwan. High end vittoria and michelin tires are made in Thailand.

Kinda like this but you thank Igor or Sergey instead:
