Wouldn't '62 be a little late for those style head lugs? Maybe it was made earlier and sold in '62. And look at the chain length and how the FD appears to be set up. Maybe it's just the photos but it looks only marginally rideable that way to me. Cool bike nevertheless.

> Originally sold by the Cupertino Bike Shop owned by Spence Wolfe. All original parts including Magistroni Cranks engraved with the Cinelli logo, Campagnolo derailleurs and shifters, Mafac brakes, steel Cinelli bar and stem, and Brooks saddle. The components show wear but are remarkably clean for their age and function perfectly. The wheels are Record high-flange no logo hubs laced to Mavic red-label tubular rims with new FMB Boyeaux silk strada tires.

> The frame, silver with chrome lugs, was repainted by D&D Cycles, and looks simply gorgeous with barely a nick. Oil port at the bottom bracket shell, fastback seatstays, beautifully simple chrome lugs, and a classic Cinelli fork with a bend unlike anything you'll find today.
