I have found references only to tandems by Cinelli being raced in Tokyo and Rome. I don't know if SC type bikes were raced in those Olympics. But there was an SC type model commemorating the Tokyo Olympics which I have found this information, in an old FOR SALE, about: "The Cinelli Tokyo '64 was the 1985 project of Antonio Columbo. Only 300 of these were made and only 75 were sent to the States.Columbus SL tubing.Original Cinelli lugs, sloping fork crown.Rare rose color (most were silver). Chrome fork crown, tips,headlugs, right chainstay. Full Super Record group, Cinelli VIP bar/stem/saddle."
