Strengths: Very comfortable, like Cinelli's generally are
Weaknesses: Creaking and squeaking - drove me crazy!
Bottom Line:
A budget and comfy bar - but a stupid 3 piece design! The ends are glued (!) into a central sleeve and if you exert any weight on the bar at all (as in climbing, etc...) it sounds as though you are strangling a large, pissed off and very angry parrot - squeek, sqwuak, creak - unbelievable. Stay away at all costs. Was supplied on my TCR as standard - but it had to go!
