Was planning on buying this exact frameset when I found a complete bike locally for the same price via Craigslist. Granted, it was a hideous build, but I've fixed that aspect. This one is just about finished. Last thing I'd like to do is relace the rear wheel to use the factory Shamal bladed spokes.

Drivetrain/Cog/Chainring/Chain:
EAI 17 tooth black cog/Campagnolo Record Pista 50 tooth chainring/nickel plated Izumi chain; other side of double fixed hub is a EAI black 19 tooth cog for windy days
Saddle/Seatpost:
Fizik Arione/Thomson silver Elite 31.6 seatpost

My favorite Vigorelli, probably the only Cinelli frame I want to build up. This thing is epic.

Personally think that this is the best vigor build on PR! Very classy..
About the road/mtb clipless, i prefer road pedals, gives you better power transfer (IMO) but if you use this bike on daily basis, i think mtb pedals suits you better because the shoes allow you to walk normally.. And some mtb cleat shoes like Chrome or DZR offered sneakers-styled shoe.. Just my 2 cents :)

I'm thinking of doing both. This is my daily commuter bike and I think some DZR/MTB shoe/pedal combo would work well for my errands. Then on weekends a set of road pedals and Sidi's would be a great way to ride longer distances. Thanks for the kudos on the build. I love this damn thing.

I do get paranoid when I lock it, bu it's too fun not to ride everywhere. Why build a bike that doesn't see hundreds of miles of pavement per month?

Wonderful Build... I would recommend trying a solid touring shoe and a road pedal that uses a MTB cleat like the Shimano A600 pedals. I have both. The Shimano RT82 shoes which are a hybrid type and they are awesome. More walkable than a Road shoe and more appropriate for a bike that sees pavement for 99% of the time.

Nice. I'm looking into getting both road and MTB pedals and swapping them out depending on my needs for the day. Can't wait to try this thing with clipless for the first time.

Thank you. I think the shamals are one of the best looking wheels out there.
