Cino's last bike was a Cinettica Giotto bike made for him by his son. Prior to that he used a silver Cinelli with 26 " wheels with Cinelli m-71 pedals, Cinelli bivalent hubs, and Unica Nitor saddle and seatpost. The bike appearing in the October 1989 issue of Bicycle Guide does indeed have a radial-spoked wheel but I am not able to tell what kind of hub it is from the photo. The rear hub is completely hidden by the freewheel.
