Lina's Cinelli Experience 2007
Lina has been tinkering with a road bike project and was hunting one in her size till she stumbled upon this Cinelli Experience 2007.
She bit the bullet and gotten the framesetas it was in a splendid condition. With the orange, white and black colourway, Lina wanted a white cockpit along with the tires and seatpost.
What was done for her was instead with cinelli components, we ended up matching the bike with the Cinelli Dinamo seatpost, handlebar and stem as the handlebar was the only available choice from Cinelli then, for 38cm handlebar.
The groupset chosen is a Shimano Ultegra R8000. Quite a straightforward choice and although we wish to make it a full italian build, we need to bear in mind of the budget and comparing choices, the R8000 is the go to.
Wheelset was built up by our friends at BUILT. Choosing the Hplusson Archetype and DT Swiss 350 as both has black and white colourway was quite brilliant. The DT Swiss 350 hubset is simply value for its price and definitely our choice for any friendly budget wheelbuild!
The outcome is a nice sweet orange combined with black and white colourway parts although we would have wanted the DINAMO wordings to be in white.
Thanks Lina for coming to us with this fun project on the colourways and also for your patience with us!
