Finding frames likes these is one thing, but when i get an email with the question 'if i would be interested in a Cinelli pista'. The answer was very quickly made :) Offcourse i am interested. Cino Cinelli was born in Montespertoli (near Florence), Italy, 9 February 1916, he passed away on the 20th of April 2001. Cinelli family: Poor farming family from the province of Florence. 10 children total (born in less than 20 years) 7 boys and 3 girls.
