Mario Camilotto at Cinelli

One of Cinelli's framebuilders in the 1980s was Mario Camilotto, he appears here in a video. For several years he was the framebuilder of the Super Corsas.


After leaving Cinelli he built approximately 400 Camilotto frames.  If you own a Camilotto frame you can register it using the contact information at www.mariocamilotto.com

Reminder: I invite you to contribute by sending in photographs of your Cinelli bike, illustrations, personal stories, and articles about Cinelli bikes and components. I can be contacted at veronaman@gmail.com

Leggerissimo Pista in Berlin

If you look carefully at this video you can spot a Leggerissimo Pista in a Berlin bike shop. Would a Berliner be kind enough to take some photos of it and send them to me? It can be spotted at about 28/29 seconds. A classic, silver, SC can also be spotted later in the video.

1955-1956 Hübner & Koch Catalog







Thanks again to Christoph in Germany for sending the above images (click to enlarge). 

I note that now the first Cinelli (on page 1) is now identified as an "A" model, and that on page 2 is reference to model "C"; neither of which were identified as such in the 1953 catalog
