Origin

The Nemo TIG is Cinelli's modern steel flagship — proof that steel still belongs in high-performance road racing. Hand TIG-welded in Milan from custom-drawn Columbus Spirit triple-butted tubes, it pairs a mega-oversized 44 mm downtube and conical head tube with a T47 bottom bracket and full internal integration. The TIG construction lets Cinelli build a myriad of custom geometries while keeping the frame stiff, fast and unmistakably Italian.
