Cinelli Tutto

I’m after a singlespeed for work commuting duties with very light off road use. I’ve considered a Genesis Flyer or older Day One but they seem very heavy and a bit boring by reviewers standards.

Any user opinions on the Cinelli Titto. How is the Geometry for longer rides and how is sizing?

Wouldn’t mind a Paddy Wagon or Pompino but can never seem to find one local to me.

130mm rear spacing and derailleur hanger on the Tutto which would annoy me, if I was only ever going to use it fixed or singlespeed.

On the plus side the tyre clearance looks good.

I had one for 6 months last year (bike got stolen and needed complete bike fast and they were very reduced) and it was a nice handling bike on road and gravel.  As for sizing, watch out for the very short headtubes, even on the largest size.

Also didn’t really like have a gear hanger and cable guides as had no intention of running it geared and had to use a Surly 130mm hub when building up some nicer wheels than the stock wheels.

If I was getting one again I would want the first version which while only takes 35mm tyres is 120 spacing has no gear hanger and a bit tighter around the wheels (which look better to me)

I have a Day One that is currently set up as a fixed gear gravel/road bike.

I wouldn’t say it was boring. Basic double butted Reynolds (520) spring but can take a 40mm tyre (with room) and the unused cable guides are very subtle.  135mm spaced (I run a Surly fixed disc hub) so good options available. Rarer now as they are getting on a bit but, IMHO, a worthy consideration:

I have a Tutto Plus and I’ve run it SS/Geared flat bar and dropped bars (all combinations) so it’s very versatile and rides nicely.

My only issue really was the relatively low front end/short headtube if running it with drop bars, you need to run a pretty decent stack of spacers unless you like to ride an aggressive setup. But I think that’s normal with a lot of these fixie/messenger-ie type framesets! It was also my first drop bar bike so obviously the contrast to a MTB was just quite big.

I don’t suppose you’re after a size Small…? #stealthad

#stealthlad  I’m 6′ so maybe not. Do like the look of the Day One above though!
