The Cinelli Supercorsa is the world’s most iconic steel bicycle frame and has been in production for almost 70 years.
The first Supercorsa was designed by Cino Cinelli, together with his framebuilder Luigi Valsassina in the early 1950s. His stated goal was “the perfect functional harmony between the three main parts of the frame: the fork, the main triangle and the rear stays.” This was to be achieved through the development of stiffness, elasticity, aerodynamics and aesthetics, with each component of the frame completely redesigned according to the radical criteria of Cino.
After 15 years experimenting with and refining what he described as the most “philosophical” piece of equipment produced by his brand, Cino and Valsassina arrived at the iconic solutions still so clearly recognizable in today’s Supercorsa: the proprietary sloping fork crown, the double-bolt fastback seat stays, pointed lugs and perfect Italian stage racing geometry.”
Our gorgeous example of this legendary steel masterpiece comes equipped with top of the line for that year Campagnolo Gran Sport gruppo, Magistroni cranks and bottom bracket plus of course …. Cinelli bar and stem combo with a very rare Brooks saddle that has some custom features. Paint is original along with the stickers and headbadge, we believe it’s important to show all the patina on a vintage machine so it looks authentic, especially for it’s 65 years of age.
