"Cinelli gives a new spark to their road bike line-up with an all-new aerodynamic carbon Aeroscoop and a sleek, all-new stainless steel Speciale Corsa XCR made in Italy. I got a chance to head to northern Italy's cycling mecca a few weeks back to test them both out. And each truly lived up to the hype. No matter if you are looking for a super-fast aero road bike, or a modern reinterpretation of the classic handmade Italian steel road bike, Cinelli has got you covered..."
"I first had the opportunity to ride the Speciale Corsa XCR, climbing and descending in dense clouds, light rain, and on wet roads back and forth to the Ghisallo museum I featured a couple weeks back. No bike feels more appropriate to ride wet Italian roads to the sanctuary of the patron saint of cyclists than a handmade-in-Italy stainless steel bike with 30mm tires on it."
Cinelli introduced two distinct new road models: the Aeroscoop aerodynamic carbon and the Speciale Corsa XCR stainless-steel handmade frame. The Speciale Corsa XCR suits wet, twisty climbs and descents with 30mm tires, racy geometry, a slightly taller headtube for comfort, and a real 8.73kg build with Dura-Ace Di2 and DT ARC1100 wheels; stainless chainstays taper before UDH dropouts to provide stiffness. The Aeroscoop is a sleek, light, fast aero road bike weighing about 7.56kg with Dura-Ace Di2 and Fulcrum wheels and performs strongly on tight, mixed-surface roads. Tire clearance around 32mm would optimize the Speciale’s comfort and rolling resistance balance.
