Dear Norm:

Congrats on an excellent bike, and hats off to the Bicycle Specialities folks for an excellent refurbishment. That's definitely some of the better rechroming I've seen in quite some time.

Whats the story on the seat post? I see the Kopps sticker: did Kopps always put the sticker on the seatpost? It also looks like an early version of the Unica saddle. Did that saddle require a special seatpost? Just wondering why you didn't use the ubiquitous two bolt campy post.

She looks great!

A few months back I posted pictures of a very rusty Cinelli, well it is now back from the painter's (Bicycle Specialties / Mike Barry) and built up. Conversations with the original owner helped verify that the components are correct and many are original.

Here is a link to the pictures, both before and after.

Let me know if there is any problem with the link. I do not always have success with Yahoo Photos.
