Mark,

I'm pretty sure any steel Cinelli track bar would be period correct for your bike. There were at least 3 different bends, none of which are from any specific period as far as I know. The bar without a number stamped in it has probably had the last 3/4' to 1" cut off the ends, which is qu ite common to gibe a little more clearance between the knees and the bar . Don't hesitate and lose out this time.

Brian Baylis La Mesa, CA The last time I had the chance to buy a pair of steel bars, still in the
   plastic cover, was at a swap meet a number of years ago. I didn't have to hesitate to pay the $5 the seller wanted for them. Same person sold m e some Rec C HF track hubs in the box, 28 holes(my favorite) for $50. Ma n, that Steve Hegg really knows how to stick it to ya. ;-)

Hi All.

Off topic, but following up on a previous CR member ebay listing.

I've been wanting a pair of steel Cinelli track bars for a while and

when I saw these posted by a CR member on ebay, I jumped:

ViewItem&item=7203436354&sspagename=ADME:B:AAQ:US:1

Unfortunately, by the time I got an answer to a question I had before

buying, they had sold. So, I am still looking and have found these:

and these:

Can anyone enlighten me about these 2 bars so I know if they are

period correct for my 70's track bike. They are both Cinelli track

bars, but they seem to have a different bend (the first set looks a

little "rounder" top section and the second set looks like it has a

straighter top section). I also know the first set has NO NUMBER

STAMPED on them, the second pair may have a stamped number but it is

under the bar wrap according to the seller.

Any help would be great.
