The Cinelli Speciale is designed for gravel riders who want to combine classic looks with today’s performance. This modern gravel bike is handcrafted in Milano, with Italian soul and Columbus steel. One by one.

This extreme built of the Cinelli Speciale caught our attention. It is assembled with a wide variety of less common components. Like the Ingrid RD1 MK2 group set, Italian precision-made components. Together with the DT-Swiss F-132 fork and GRC-1100 wheels with Vittoria Peyote tyres installed, it gives the bike a brutal look. And the integrated Columbus Cento Gravel bar finishes it off.

The “standard” Speciale is already a feast to the eye. The Columbus Spirit Steel frame is almost 200 grams lighter than the previous Nemo model. It has a progressive geometry, ready for high-performance gravel riding. And it features plenty of mounts for those wanting to go for multi-day trips.

The Speciale frameset comes with a carbon fork but is compatible with both suspension fork and dropper post. It is available in 8 different finishes and various set-ups. From GRX (€ 4.800*) up to Rival Suspended (€ 6.200). The frameset comes with a price tag of € 2.800* (including fork, headset, seat post clamp, UDH hanger, thru axles).
