But getting them off'll be a different story...(unless you use an exacto) :O

My 52cm Cinelli. Neato chromed lugs and crowns of fork.

I was set to build it up this weekend with Dura-Ace Cranks, DA headset & Zipp high-flange wheels. Sadly none of my local "track" friendly shops stocked a proper bottom bracket. So I'll put in my order at Business Cycles (should of been my first move) and I should be movin' in a week or so.

That must NOT abide.

oh dear gawd that cinelli is too cool

"the dude abides"

I think Bunny will give me that "BJ" for free one she sees the final product.

Do I still have to pay $100 to watch?

beautiful frame, can't wait to see a pic of it built up - you sure aren't cutting any corners :D

damnit.



...okay, no use being a poor sport. raygunner, your new cinelli is fantastic. maybe i'll relieve you of it should you ever decide to build up a vanilla/something more expensive/custom.

I didn't know they came in blue, I've only seen the yellow and the red. Oh man that looks soo good!

I bought this on eBay awhile back & paid ALOT! Well, not like the $850+ they are new but still alot. Though when I pulled it out to take a pic that the lugs & fork were chromed, unlike the ones for sale from Business Cycles (even though I guess they don't make 'em anymore).

I guess it's from the early 90's. I wanna do some nice wheels with Phil hubs & blue Deep V's. Sadly I'm running out of paychecks to spare...

whew, that's all kinds of hot.

Me naked skid at 2004 WestSide invite in Portland. Bike is an Eddy Merckx I bought last x mas in NYC from bikeworks. It was world champion points racer Kristal Werckx's bike from Belgium (Her name under clear coat on top tube) My other bike I retired after 8 years on the road.

you forgot the helmet

Is that "skid" as in skid-mark?

Nice naked riding. It's been a few years since I had the pleasure of sprinting down Newbury starkers.

Long time lurker...1st time poster....

Lemond Filmore...had 5 months, love it.
Nishiki in family for years...Father bought brand new in 1973ish, fun ride.

blue bike is gorgeous... what kind of bar and stem are those?

Nitto bars
as far as stem no idea....as i said it was my pop's way years back.
i stripped it down to frame and re-built it(suze pro max wheels, nitto/njs bars 40mm, old dura-ace 165 cranks and bb,blah-blah, ect...ect)
stem...some strange standard...not 1in or 1 1/8
fun ride though
glad you like it.

Yeah, the Lemond may be newer and maybe even "better", but the Nishiki is just pretty in a classic and classy kind of way that the Lemond can't touch. Woo. Nice job.

No, It's Esher naked. Skid has a beard and not as short as I am.

those bars are nitto b127s.

I like the picture of top portion of the blue nishiki. Seems the bike is looking to go out for a ride. Like dogs when the get their snout up on a window and look at you till you take 'em out.

Uhh....
