Cinelli Pista
Tom writes in, "Picked this up off a mate who works as a removalist, he was pretty much given the bike and I bought it off him. Came with steel 650b rims laced to a rear record hub and front first gen dura ace, got rid of them pretty quickly and replaced with 32/40 record(pre stamped) laced to gold fiamme rims.
Just waiting on the new rear sprocket, some rubber and a replacement head tube badge.
Other parts are:
cinelli #1 stem/#14 bars
first gen record pista cranks/bb
25 tooth campagnolo chainring
record headset
the coventry chain
unicator saddle
christophe cages
zeus pedals
Not sure if I want to sell it or do a full restoration.
It's mid 60's is as far as I know from the hubs that were on it.
Serial number is 7782".
