New-Old-Stock Cinelli Campione Del Mondo Handlebars (38 cm Width and 26.4 mm Clamp) with Shiny Silver Finish and No Cable Grooves Thank you for your interest in this item and please visit our store for other offerings. We have very reasonable shipping terms and combine orders to save money (for customers) on shipping costs. We also maintain customer friendly return/refund/exchange policies. Product Description: A note on the recent history of selected Cinelli handlebars and quill stems… We are getting a number of questions regarding some of the Cinelli handlebars and quill stems we stock…specifically concerning the vintage of our inventory. As I understand it, Cinelli recently authorized the production of certain previously discontinued handlebars and quill stems. More specifically, we have noted a recent influx (into the market) of matte silver Giro D’ Italia and Criterium handlebars with a 26.0 mm center section and no cable/housing grooves, as well as silver 1/A quill stems spec’d to the same 26.0 mm clamp. I believe these models, with the aforementioned specifications, represent the extent of the reintroduction. As I review our Cinelli catalogs dated around the turn of the century (and shortly thereafter), I do not see any of the above mentioned handlebars or quill stems as being available. In addition, I do not see other models…like the Campione Del Mondo handlebars or the X/A, 101 and Oyster quill stems as being available. Now there could have been some production run shortly after the turn of the century, but I still thought it was worth noting our Cinelli catalogs do not list these handlebars and quill stems among their offerings at that time. This catalog research is consistent with what we were told at the beginning of this century, when we purchased most of our Cinelli handlebar and stem inventory (the remainder of which is currently listed in our store). We had two suppliers located in Europe that sold us fairly large wholesale lots of Cinelli handlebars and stems shortly after the turn of the century, and both suppliers communicated all such inventory represented discontinued product. As a result, the aforementioned Cinelli handlebar and quill stem models in our inventory likely represent Cinelli product that pre-dates the turn of the century. Now I honestly don’t know the significance of this point when considering functional quality. I am sure newer Cinelli handlebars and stems are very good quality, but given the questions we have fielded, I wanted to confirm this offering (among others in our store) will pre-date current production runs by more than a decade (and some of our inventory is much older, especially when considering Cinelli handlebars/quill stems spec’d to the proprietary 26.4 mm size were discontinued in the mid 90’s). I should probably also confirm the discontinued 1/A quill stems were previously never manufactured with the 26.0 mm clamp, but were instead limited to the Cinelli proprietary (and larger) 26.4 mm clamp specification. The “sister” X/A quill stem, which has not been reintroduced to-date, was spec’d to both the 26.4 mm and 26.0 mm clamp. On a side note, please be mindful of this larger (26.4 mm) clamp size on vintage X/A and 1/A quill stems, as there are still a fair number of these quill stems in circulation. We’ve had a few customers approach us over the years questioning their X/A and 1/A stems and their inability to securely clamp onto Cinelli handlebars. In nearly all of these occurrences, we (with the customers’ help) have subsequently determined the problem to be a sizing compatibility issue…meaning the customers were unknowingly attempting to clamp one of these stems with a 26.4 mm clamp to Cinelli handlebars with a 26.0 mm center section. I understand the difference is only 0.4 mm, but at this high stress point where a stem clamps down on handlebars, the small sizing difference appears to be enough to cause problems. Original Listing… This offering is for one set of new-old-stock Cinelli “Campione Del Mondo” handlebars in a rare satin (shiny) silver finish. They have the proprietary (and larger) sleeved center section that measures 26.4 mm in diameter, so these bars are only compatible with Cinelli quill stems from around the mid 90’s and before…which we believe is the point in time (the mid 90’s) when Cinelli ceased manufacturing bars/stems in the 26.4 mm size. We should also note they are made from 5086 aluminum alloy and include the traditional sleeved center section, but there are no cable grooves…so these bars are a very good candidate for vintage non-aero brake levers. These are traditional maes style drop bars that are also known by their drop-width measurement of 66-38, as stamped to the right of the clamp area (and just under the Cinelli lettering). More specifically, the “66” is a Cinelli indicator of a deep drop/reach and the “38” is a reference to the overall bar width (center-to-center). In an attempt to further assist with proper fit, we have also taken our own (center-to-center) measurements and noted a reach of 72 mm and a drop of 160 mm (and please refer to our notes below that specify our measurement techniques…in the event someone wants to replicate our approach for comparative purposes). Please also make special note of selected close-up pictures to the left, as the labeling of the sleeved center section is slightly different from our other Campione Del Mondo bar offerings. We are not sure if these different markings are an indicator of a slightly older or newer vintage (relative to our other Campione offerings). Having said this, the aforementioned larger (and proprietary) clamp sizing establishes some boundaries as to vintage. In other words, if Cinelli migrated away from this larger bar/stem clamp sizing in the mid 90’s, then these handlebars would date no later than this transition point. We understand this logic does not establish a manufacturing date, but it at least turns the clock back 30+ years…as a starting point for their vintage. In terms of condition, these bars are new and unused. The traditional shiny silver finish still shows fairly well, but there are generally some shopwear-type marks and/or factory forging/finishing blemishes on the sleeved center section of each of these bar offerings. Listing Update…We still have some stocks in this model/size/finish, but the cosmetic condition is not first quality perfect. The blemishes consist primarily of surface scratches or other marks (possibly due to factory forging/finishing imperfections) around the stamped labels/logos. Although, we see no evidence of stem clamp markings at the center section or bar tape residue anywhere else. As a result, we still believe these bars are new and unused (and have likely never been clamped to a stem). Please also note that while we have multiple quantities listed for sale, we will repeatedly update the pictures to represent the next offering that will sell/ship. I can also confirm the cosmetic imperfections may not show-up as well in the pictures relative to what we see in person (and maybe we are being overly conservative here, but we’d rather have folks pleasantly surprised than disappointed…with respect to cosmetic condition). A note about our “reach” and “drop” measurements… A number of customers have asked about our handlebar measurement techniques, so we thought it was probably appropriate to better define how we go about measuring the handlebars we offer for sale. The drop…we “stand the bars up” so the only contact point with the table top is the flattened drop area near the bar ends (although we typically have to hold the bars in this position so they do not fall over). From this position, with the drop section of the bars resting on the table top, we measure the vertical distance from the table top to the bottom edge of the bar tubing at the stem clamp area. This provides our version of a center-to-center measurement for the drop. The reach…keeping the bars in the upright position on the table (as noted above), we push them against the wall facing us, so the outermost section of the bar bend (i.e., the area around where the shifter/brake levers are mounted) is touching the wall. From this position, we measure the horizontal distance from the wall to the front of the stem clamp area. This provides our version of a center-to-center measurement for the reach.

Note to international customers regarding shipping… We apologize to those that feel some of our international shipping charges are too high. We only charge actual shipping rates, but once an order exceeds a certain amount, we hesitate to use the least expensive US Postal Services First Class International service. We feel this way, because this service is not trackable or insurable…so more risk of loss. We prefer the US Postal Services Priority Mail International service for more expensive orders, because this service is trackable at USPS.com and insurable…so less risk of loss. Unfortunately, this service is more expensive, especially for smaller/lighter packages, relative to the First Class International service. We are sorry about these higher shipping costs, but hopefully our notes help to explain why this is the case. Note to international customers regarding customs… We also apologize to those that feel their country import taxes, duties and brokerage fees are excessive. As a small US business, we are required by customs’ laws to declare each order as a retail sale. Additionally, the declared order value must be equal to total store purchases and/or winning auction bids (less any shipping costs, as these are not considered in the declared value). As a result, each customer will be responsible for paying his/her own country taxes, duties and brokerage fees, which will be collected upon delivery. Again, we apologize for these additional costs, but we cannot afford the penalties and fines that come with breaking customs’ laws…so we have to strictly abide by them.
