  • So this is as much a build thread as it is a help me thread…

    I picked this up as a full build recently as it simply caught my eye. Before it even arrived I’d ordered a myriad of parts:

    Thomson post
    Thomson stem
    Hope x2 brake
    Brooks C17
    King headset

    I’ve also fitted some trials carbon riser bars and the ever important carbon headset spacer. ODI grips also. OH and plenty of titanium bolts, all of these bits I had kicking about.

    Now, it’s a mega fun bike. But (as I knew it would be) the frame is just too small for me. So, does anyone know whether there’s a model of Cinelli Mash that will accommodate 35c tyres (aside from the desired SSCX as I simply cannot find one)? Alternatively, any other frame recommendations? My plan is to find a horizontal dropout frame that will take the 35c tyres, then fit a nicer disc fork.

  • A Mash Work might tick all of the boxes

  • My Mash Steel fits 36c slicks comfortably

  • So it sounds like a mash works is the one.

  • Omnium CXC is another option

  • Really liking those, nice shout! A 54-56 in yellow would be just the ticket. Although again would appear to be gold dust

  • Oh I guess a Specialized Tricross SS if it doesn't need to be a Mash

  • I've got a 56 trackllcross chargeplug that I'm in the middle of paint stripping, and I just want to get rid of it because it's too big for me if that's of any interest?
    Edit: clears 45mm tyres on wide 28mm internal rims with ease

  • Cheers Josh. Not a huge fan of the plug, would like to hold out for something a bit posh and snobby!

  • There's a Cinelli tutto on ebay now in a 54, but might still be too small

  • Squid So-Ez might do the trick?

  • If you're not dead set on yellow then give Paradise cycles a shout, I think they've still got some black ones in stock

  • What rims are those btw?
