Wanted: Cinelli pista bar

Posted on
  • cinelli pista bar
    anyone has got one and wants to sell?

  • yes, but they were stretched wider than original width, steel, chrome- good in places, crap in other places, I used full tape as in Madison bars.

  • Stretched? How?
    Do you mean bent?
    EL Diablo, I'm still interested, how much (stretch and price)?

  • hey that was my WANTED thread... but same questions: stretched?

  • i've got one, it's an old track bar with the matching track stem, the bars have been slightly bent in a crash, might sell it, make an offer?

  • stretched- well I've spent a lot of time in the gym so when I go to the beach I don't get sand kicked in my face, so the shoulders are wide.

    Cinelli Track bars are very narrow- for me so I put one end of the flats on the carpet covered by a foot and pulled the other flat gently outwards, turn the bars over and do again on the other side, and hey presto I have bars the width I want. Apprently is was a done thing a long time ago, and the bar shape is very similar to a version of the Charge bars.

    Price- make me an offer as I have no idea, the problem is delivering the bars as I'm in Uxbridge, next known trip up town is 20th Jan.

    To be fair here- its Punkpixel's thread and I responded to that, so to me he'd have first choice, Fruitbat would be second in line. I have no wish to upset anyone, or start a war here.

    PS I have the Cinelli chrome Sachi droop snoop chrome stem to go with the bars too- I should have two somewhere, one long 12/13 cm and one medium 9 ish cms.

  • Tour de Ville have loads

  • El_Diabolo, the bar is for quite a precious bike so I really need one in good condition, not bent. But I appreciate your muscle power. I am a quite a skinny guy with just a few small muscles in my legs and none in the arms. So I am happy for Fruitbat to have the muscle bend bar

  • i've got one, it's an old track bar with the matching track stem, the bars have been slightly bent in a crash, might sell it, make an offer?

    How bad is the dent? I am looking for a really good one. Do you have a pict somewhere?
    PM me. Thanks!!!

  • Tour de Ville have loads

    I will check with them again but don't think they have. They might have the criterium bar but I am after pista.

  • yeah hold on a sec

  • Wow didn't realise anyone other than us Brunel lot were from Uxbridge, you should try and make it to Wests el diablo. Give us a shout if you decide to go and we can all ride down together, it would be good to get another rider.

  • you can see how on the left it kind of curves inwards.

  • better angle

  • hmm looks like the saddle's not straight in the first pic...

  • sorry lpg for not getting back to you. I am going to check Tour de Ville first tomorrow. Would prefer a straight one. may get beck to you. Thanks for putting up the pics

  • hi, i have a cinnelli drop handlebar. what do you mean by pista?

  • better angle

    nice whip LPG

  • Hi Rad- I can't PM or message you- you need to do five posts to prove you're a good chap. Try PM-ing me after that, yes it sounds like the stem you're after.

  • bugger. they had one at Tour de Ville I had my eye on but they sold it
    Same question again: anyone selling a Cinelli PISTA bar in good condition (not bended)?

  • lol whats wrong with my bent ones

  • i am just superstitious but if they are just very slightly bent I am definitely interested.

  • they're steel so they're definitely structurally sound, but i can't sell 'em, they're the only ones that match the stem! sorry buddy. bump this thread on monday when there are more people online.

  • no worries lpg. ignore my PM. I keep looking
