Matteo, I know of yellow Cinellis sold in Germany in the seventies by Brugelmann, the biggest mailorder bike shop at that time in Germany. As far as I know they came out first in 1974 as Model Legerissimo for the 1974 Olympic games in Munich. Accents were red (head tube)and they usually had soem special drillium parts made by Brügelmann. I ahve never seen a track version though. Hope this helped.

Cinellisti!
I probably scored what appears to be a cinelli track bike.but it needs repaint.Now,bike is not mine yet,but i was wondering if you guys ever recall yellow cinellis in the 50s or 60s.Were custom colors accepted or you guys had to accept what the factory was sending you?
Please share!
thanx
