Hi Gang!
      I have lurked in behind for long enough! My first Cinelli was a Super Corsa, sold by Bloor Cycle and Sports in the early Sixties. It had a Reynolds 531 three main tubes decal and the stays were in Columbus! There was a little bird on the stays. I wanted this bike really badly and finally got to purchase it from the Scoolteacher that owned it. I still have the "Worthy" bag from it. It came with Scheeren bar and Stem, Altenburger brakes and Gran Sport derailleur with a Simplex suicide shifter on the front! The hubs were three piece steel from campag and the rims were either altenberger (one) and one fiamme red label. I have since sold it to a guy who now lives in San fransisco(Scott: are you out there buddy?)...I had my Cinelli B stolen. I had it tricked out with a campy triple and the usual campy bits. Rene
