Cino Cinelli's older brother was making steel bars and stems before WWII and Cino took over after WWII.

Brandon, were you asking if any Cinelli family member actually made a bar and stem with their own hands, or if their company ever made a bar and stem or was the question, did some other company supply the Cinelli company with the bars and stems to resell???

Nelson, I seriously doubt that Cinelli would need to go to the Japanese to get steel bars and stems made.

Now what about that rumor that Reynolds bought their tubing from Columbus?
