I'm with Chuck on this one for sure. I'd love to see a Starship in person, I've only seen a small picture in the Cinelli brochure, but I thought that it was an awesome piece of design. I love the way the name is too big for the tubes. After I saw that pic I started trying to figure out how I could ever afford one. I'd have to sell almost all my bikes! So I'll just have to wait a while I guess. :-(
