Centurion Cinelli Equipe '84: Columbus SL tubing with Cinelli lugs, Campy dropouts

Tange Crome fork with Shimano ends, sloping Cinelli crown?, Shimano 600 HS

Campy NR laced to mavic ma 40, Royal Gran Compe 400 brakes & levers (they work)

same as front

Suntour Superbe cranks and campy BB

Selle Italia Turbo! not sure about seatpost

Shimano SPD

Dura-Ace derailleurs, Sachs 8sp FW, sugino chain rings, Silva/Campy frame pump!

This is a rare Centurion Cinelli Equipe from the only year (i believe) it was in production: 1984. I don't know that any of the components are stock although all the high end Centurion bikes of that year came with Selle Italia Turbo saddles. It has some nice late 70's-ish Nuovo Record hubs laced to some modern Mavic rims. It was professionally repainted at some point and stamped with "Cinelli." With Columbus SL tubing and Cinelli lugs it practically is. From what I've read this bike was comparable to it's Super Corsa contemporary. It rides like a dream.

...and it has been repainted like yours in the same color. i wonder if the same person did both, since i bought mine in seattle.
your pictures are a little contaminated with other URL's on my screen, so it looks like there's only one of the Equipe. I would love to see more.

Your Equipe

The ride is the giveaway. This is one smooth riding frame. The OEM Equipe had that Ofmega headset. Mine is OEM and I know of 3 others, all say "Made in Italy" on them. Maybe not on-site at Cinelli's plant, but somewhere around there. Great bike.
