Introducing Miss Milano 1972 – my ’72 Cinelli Speciale Corsa vintage lightweight - completed after 18 months of what can only be described as obsessive effort.

For the bike spotters there will be full build details soon but for now enjoy the images – photography by Andy White of Fyxomatosis

The bike good enough on its own, there is no need to add high heels and garters for a pseudo-classy impression. :noidea:

Ice cream is great.
Roast beef is awesome.

Roast beef with ice cream? ... It just doesn't match.

You sure you got the sizing right? It's unusal for a vintage bike with downtube shifters to show that much post. I hope you can actually ride it comfortably. Can't imagine if it had been a 56 like you originally wanted. :shock:

And don't try change what Andy does because he will not do it for you!!

My mate Charlie just has his Masi finished, needs to go back for its photo shoot (there are a couple of photos on the site)
It is incredible but this is another level
