Cinelli Olympic 53cm track bike for sale

It's time to sell my lovely Cinelli.

I got this new from Cinelli in 2003 (I ordered it as a semi-custom frame through Helmut at Sonic Cycles; he took measurements of my 54cm Roberts road bike and sent it to Cinelli, we had to wait until they had orders for three or four track bikes, then they made a batch and I got my frame).

Cinelli Olympic frame (I've seen these called Supercorsa Pista frames - are these names for the same or different models in some small way?). Columbus Thron tubing.
Seat tube is 53cm, centre to centre; top tube is 53.5cm centre to centre.
I think of the bike as a 54cm, since Cinelli built it on the basis of the 54cm Roberts frame measurements we sent them — perhaps they shorten the seat tube to keep the standover clearance with the higher track bb.

I've raced it at Newport mostly and Herne Hill twice, so it's almost exclusively been used indoors.

Here's the bits:

Campag Record Pista 165mm cranks and BB; there's a campag 49t ring on it in the pictures; I'll include a Campag 47t and Sugino 75 48t with the whole bike. No pedals.
Campag Chorus headset
Campag Chorus seatpost; the saddle is just one I put on from my parts box, as I took off an old faithful.
Nitto Jaguar steel 110mm NJS stem.
Nitto steel steel pista NJS bars 40cm wide at the drops c-c (I ordered bars and stem from Euro-Asia imports, remember them?).
Velo Orange elk-skin cross-stitched grips.
Front wheel is Campag record high flange 'sheriff star' hub with Campag Atlanta clincher rim, 32h
Rear wheel is Powertap hub with Campag Atlanta clincher rim, 32h; 15 tooth sprocket.
Tyres are Tufo tubular clincher 22mm; I've also used Michelin and Vittoria 23mm clinchers, which clear fine.

I'm asking £2,200 for the whole bike. If enough people comment saying they want this or that part, I'll split it up and sell frame and parts.

Dibs cranks if split.

It's obviously a very nice bike but don't think you'll get £2,200 for it!

thanks for the reply; i'll wait to see what interest there is before splitting, or revising the price

I'm pulling the ad now, because I'm listing the bike on ebay. Thanks for looking!

Lovely bike in a beautiful colour…good luck with eBay.
