Just taken delivery of my Cinelli (finally) and now the mammoth task is in hand of what colour bottle cages to get....

The bike is as below with black saddle, bar-tape etc

    black
  • nice problem!.....initial thought was to match the blue, but if saddle and tape are black go with black.....me, I'd go with white saddle and tape, then blue or white cages...

    What's the rest of the spec, btw?
  • First thought was

    but the green and red are different shades on the frame itself

    So probably black :mrgreen:

    if its all Italian flag theme, are you sure the red and green are different? surely they are all the same pantones but just appear different on screen?

    white, or blue and white - but your problem will be matching that shade of blue.

    Its built up with full Campag Veloce, Deda bars/tape, Deda Zero stem, superleggera saddle and post and Rodi Airline wheels

    the saddle, post and wheels will be getting upgraded in the new year though

    think I may need to ride down to a few bike shops to see what they look like on the frame
