I guess this is a perfect example of of beauty being in the eye of the beholder. If I ever find a Starship at a garage sale for $50 I'll sell it to you for $50 plus shipping. Of course, I just paid $50 for a Lambert frame and death fork, and I think that was a bargain, but some people would say that was $50 too much. Different strokes for different folks.

My local bike shop has a Cinelli Starship and I _love_ it... no, make that, I LOVE IT! I'd buy it in a heartbeat if I had the $4000 or so dollars to spend. More cutting-edge Italian design; time doesn't stand still.
I have a 100pt 1960 Cinelli SC in silver and I'd love to have the Starship as a companion bike. Ride them both alternate days...
Beauty, as they say, is in the eye of the beholder.
