Cinelli Vigorelli

Hello does anybody have some information about this frame?

https://www.cinelli.it/scripts/prodot...=EN&IdBici=409

Does anybody have pictures of complete bikes built on this frame?

Some guy just built one up at my LBS. Walked in with a wad of cash (literally) and bought a complete set up. That thing is crazy light. Looked rad built up to, but sorry, didn't get any pics.

Bikes: schwinn suburban conversion with chopped risers LOLZ!

they sell those things out of BTI for not too much dough. I'm surprised they haven't become the new Pista Concept.

A little less than $1000, but for sure BTI has the frame set for cheap.

That's what I can't understand, the Cinelli looks awesome, maybe because the Pista is cheaper?

damn i want one of those sooooo bad. thw store i work at has a distributor that carries cinelli, so i think sometime next year i might get one.

how durable would one of these be on the street though? i love the look and i dont have brakes of my bike now anyways, but it would suck to have the frame break on me.

I saved enough money for this beautiful piece of amazingness, but have realized that I am nowhere near being able to afford the components and wheels to do it justice. This is why I'm listing my vinyls and a guitar on ebay

fine until you crash or it falls over the wrong way or someone locks to it wrong.
