Subject: [CR]Cinelli Handlebar Question

I'm hoping that some of the Cinelli experts out there on the list can help with his one. While closely looking over my collection of Cinelli Mod. 66 handlebars on various bikes last night, I realized that I have no less than five versions. Can anyone give approximate production dates for these versions? I'd like to match up the correct bars with the proper vintage bikes.

1. "Old logo" design.

2. New Cinelli logo to right of stem, star design with Campioni del Mondo (sp?) on left, 66-42 stamped below Cinelli logo on right, shiny silver anodized finish.

3. Same as above but dull gray anodized finish, single cable groove on front of bars.

4. New Cinelli logo on both left and right of stem, 66-42 stamped below Cinelli logo on right, Campioni del Mondo stamped below logo on left. Dull gray anodized finish, no groove.

5. Top66 model, 7075 aluminum, dual ergo grooves.

Thanks,
Fred Beavers
