Cinelli Proxima - Classic Road Bike with Cinelli Integralter Handlebars - size 57cm -
Here is a really special Adverts listing and I am sure I will be sorry to see her go. This is a wonderful Classic Road Bike and it is also an asset that will appreciate in value if well looked after. Not many of these bikes around and this one is a real beauty.
Manufacture: Cinelli
Model: Proxima
Size: 57cm ideally will fit riders 5’10” to 6’2” (177cm - 188cm).
Condition: Lovely Original Condition. Some marks and scratches and abrasions which can be seen in photos. The frame has no dents, no cracks and is not bent in anyway. The frame and bike were fully refurbished and Serviced by Steel Vintage Bikes in Berlin. All component parts are in good condition, cleaned and checked and are working very well.
The Proxima was offered up by Cinelli as a mid to high range model in the 1990s. Cinelli are one of the most iconic brands in cycling and the 1990s were a particularly interesting time, when traditional bicycles and components were changing rapidly. New materials came into use and manufacturers like Cinelli were not afraid to push the boundaries and limits. The Proxima was given a modern look with an oversized and flattened downtube and a striking paint scheme. The Proxima frame is made of Columbus Thron Tubes which have been Tig Welded together.
This Cinelli Proxima is equipped with components from its 1990s era. All genuine Campagnolo Chorus and Athena parts, plus a beautiful Campy Record Sestpost. The groupset is 16speed with 8speed cassette and Campy Chorus Crankset (170cm 53/39). Please see the photo of component spec list.
What dominates this particular bike though is the Cockpit, with Cinelli Inegralter Handlebars (42cm) and well-functioning 8-speed Ergopower shifters. The Cinelli Inegralter handlebars were very forward thinking and futuristic for the days when races were still won with Quill Stems and 1”dropbars. The Integralter is rigid and comfortable with large flat segments on the tops. It also includes the majestically beautiful Cinelli Alter PinUp Girl graphic. The value of these highly desirable/collectible handlebars alone (in this good condition) is €400-500 and increasing year after year.
The bike was purchased from Berlin’s Steel Vintage Bikes in 2020/2021 but has never been ridden nor assembled. It is still in its original SteelVintage Bike Box, protected and packaged up. So the bike cannot be pre-tested or pre-ridden, but nothing has been touched since the bike left the Steel Vintage workshop and all is still in the exact same wonderful condition that they sold it in. Exactly like the photos show. So this bike will certainly look and ride like a new bike whenever or if the lucky new owner tries it out for the first time.
The bike is in DunLaoghaire area for collection and can also be delivered to your door, throughout Dublin and surrounding towns.
