Bob Freitas flagged this bike:

http://ebay.com/<blah>

But Bob didn't mention that the owner says, "If interested I also have a Cinelli Riviera to sell - pics can be sent."

I saw a Riviera today, I think for the first time. The Riviera was Cinelli's 'entry' level bike, less expensive than the B. Mid-size (didn't have tape with me), decent condition, but not all parts are original. I'm guessing late 1950s. I believe it will be auctioned at Cirque next weekend.

The Riviera is nice looking, but doesn't have the "fastback" stays and through bolt of the more expensive Cinellis. I didn't find a tubing sticker.
