Tangentially, I saw a refinished silver Cinelli in listmember Bob Freeman's (hope I have these right) bike shop in Seattle, Elliot Bay Cycles that I thought was really a faithful and subtle recreation of the original look. If I needed a Cinelli refinished, I'd call him.

Thanks for the plug Kurt. But if that was my Cinelli on the ceiling you saw, Cinelli painted it. It's original! from the late 60s near as I can tell. We have restored a number of Cinellis though. Here is one:
