Charles,
     Do you really have a Cinelli frame with a 68mm bottom bracket shell? Or has someone installed a spindle meant for thin walled English cups (e.g Gran Sport spingle) with thick-wall (i.e. Nuovo Record) Italian cups?
     Note too, as Greg mentioned, that a Campagnolo Italian spindle will be slightly longer than a similar English spindle.
   This is meant to handle the extra width of the BB shell.
      Cheers,
      Fred Rednor - Arlignton, Virginia
