Cinelli to re-issue Laser track frameset!

I just saw over at Bike Rumor that Cinelli will be reissuing the classic Laser track frameset soon in a limited production run of about 300 or so.

‘Today thanks to the rebirth of steel and people like yourselves, a dream is about to be realised: the Cinelli Laser will return. Not just as a museum display, but as a track machine; rigid and lively, more so even than its predecessor 20 years ago. All the original protagonists are ready and motivated; Andrea Pesenti who built 300 throughout the 1980’s, myself Antonio Colombo who thought them up, Paolo Erzegovesi who engineered them, and Emilvano Montorio who pulled out the tubes. New in the band will be Alessandra Cusatelli, my partner, and Cinelli design co-ordinator of the last 10 years. As always, it will only be available in limited editions. The kids are alright!”

Pretty crazy! I can't wait to see more details. I wonder if the insane geometry will be updated any? Regardless, hopefully the Cinelli team will be reissuing the the official uniforms to match as well...

Thanks to Cale for the heads-up!
