I am still kinda wondering if its a true cinelli, or a centurion cinelli, since it has the pointed seat stay caps you'd see on a centurion.

It is definetely a model "Equipe" sorta-Cinelli... (I sold quite a few of those in-the-day)

Did someone get an awesome deal on this on-topic bike ??

http://ebay.com/<blah>

(for posterity's sake, it's a 23" cinelli that's been repainted all black, with the phrase "CINELLI" on the top tube and "CENTURION" on the downtube. It has a shimano 105 drivetrain , and all of the componentry has been anodized either red, or black. No seat or pedals. The spokes are red. This guy really loves red and black !!

I am still kinda wondering if its a true cinelli, or a centurion cinelli, since it has the pointed seat stay caps you'd see on a centurion. Nevertheless, the seatstay caps, rear brake bridge, and bottom bracket are all (C) logo'd (fork is carbon), and the lugs look like cinelli (but their pictures are blurry.)
