Hi Matthew,

I do have a Windsor plastic knock-off with Windsor printed on the sides, little cushion and that is pretty descent and extremely lightweight. If anyone is interested, I will forward pics on Sunday evening and will sell for $30 plus shipping (actual shipping).

Thanks, John Proch La Grange, Texas

I believe Windsor made a plastic knock-off. Does it actually say Cinelli anywhere on it? If so, that'd be odd indeed!
