Hello,
anyone have any thoughts or experience, excuse pun, on the Cinelli Experience framesets? I see they are going for less than £300 online now.
Caveat - I buy and ride cheap, however, I reserve the right to advise on expensive kit that I have never actually used and possibly never will

  • I used to use a 2013 Cinelli Experience Veloce which was an Ok build, no complaints from me on the ride quality of it.

    The black and white frame looks really good IMO. I looked at them last year but couldn't justify another frame at the time, but interesting they've come up again at a similar price. The colourway is better than last year's though, and looks like it'd build up into a beauty with deep rims on it. Tempted now:

    they do look nice frames, and bargain prices out there. Possibly a result of alot of consumers going carbon, alloy not in demand...

    I've got a 2011 Xperience and it is still going strong. I've ridden sportives on it, used it all year round and even done the Etape on it.

    It isn't the lightest, though it is fine for my needs, but does have a great ride and position. I'm about to get a Ritchey Road Logic, but I'm keeping the Cinelli, and it will live on as my winter bike.
