2009 Bikes - Bloody Nora!

So here it is finally, fresh from Interbike 2008 Las Vegas, Cinelli X MASH SF collabo bike. There were rumours a while ago but I must say that the bike looks way better than I expected. Gotta love the classic Cinelli crest logo, the forward sloping top tube, no holes for brakes, H Plus Son Formation Face aero-rims & the all-black Campy gruppo. Bullhorns and Vittoria Randonneurs are apparently also a must. And note the low flange front hub.

It was on the bike porn thread last week buddha - it is beautiful isn't it?

oh very, I especially like the top tube which resemblance a low-pro frame but without the playoff of an actual low-pro frame, perfect for those who like the look but not the (lack thereof) comfort.

I had a look at one in Edwardes Camberwell. The saddle is a genuine Blooks, even the little leaflet attached to it apes the original. The bars do look odd, I kind of like its oddness but not its disingenuousness.

Just took delivery of my Bowery '84
Having seen your bike's photo, I do like it, but as everyone says, the bars and seat just don't seem to match. I think there would be quite a few takers if you wanted a different saddle, and maybe somebody really tall might want your bars. But its really how you feel on it. The wheels are handsome; yes indeed.

the deep V rims can put H&Son one to shame!

I was hoping to see some limited edition steel classic pista throw-back frames from the 80s from Pinarello, Colnago, DeRosa etc like the Cinelli Supercorsa...

and the condor classico pista.

I've added a 2009 bikes section to http://www.londonfgss.com/thread9085.html

Please update your 2009 finds there, or just give me a heads up if you posted here. I shall enlarge the other list, as all the 2009 bikes become official in December.

Shame to let this thread go to waste, so here's some SE Racing 2009 bikes from Charlie The Bike Monger:

^Japan only those Bianchis?

I saw them on a couple of Japanese websites, so, probably...

Yeah,it's old too, they even have. Classic pista that came with brooks saddle, different decal and fake lugged fork, same frame thought.

Not sure what you mean, they are 2009 bikes.

you can find it all here.

opinions on felt curbside as a bike?
i saw one for £600. its a beaut

Cinelli USA are saying this'll be available in February 2009, price is to be confirmed but will be somewhere between $800 and $1000 for the frame and fork.

That SE Lager is an absolute dog.

Raleigh Rush Hour.

I must says that it look great, especially the lugged fork and the frame protection from the drop bar (whatever that is called), shame it's U.S. only, otherwise I'd go for that.

I don't like the polished red 'steal me' bits, but apart from that it looks amazing.
