<------------------ SOLD ------------------> Cinelli 1R stem - 110 mm / 22.2 mm - pre 1979 (USED)
Cinelli model 1/Record (1R) - aluminum alloy - Clear anodized finish - 22.2 mm quill - 26.4 mm size clamp - 110 mm length - patented single bolt hidden non-quick release - pre 1979 Cino Cinelli era "CINELLI MILANO" oval top logo and "MADE IN ITALY - CINELLI - BREV 999401" front logo - model 1/Record (1R) : O.M.A.S. stem bolt hardware - aluminum alloy - M8 x 135 mm SHCS stem bolt and cone - grouped model 161 ... [USED - this stem is in fair condition and does exhibit definite signs of surface scratching along the length of the quill as well as several more blemishes located toward the head of the stem at its topside - all of the "hidden wedge" piece parts are intact and without damage, and as such, this stem functions perfectly (...and without any of the creaking occasionally associated with this model) - the hex heads of both the stem and clamp bolts have been chamfered to some extent, but they are still serviceable and functional - depending upon how high or low you intend to mount this stem, it may end up looking fairly presentable even in it its current state once it has been fitted to a bicycle - on the other hand, those who seek perfection will need to remove the existing coat of clear anodizing, sand and polish out any of the scratches and imperfections, buff everything to high luster, and optionally have this stem re-anodized in order to make it worthy of a true "show bike"]
