CINELLI REUNITES WITH OG MIKE GIANT TO UNVEIL ‘CINELLI ICONS’ COLLABORATION
Celebrating a historic, decades-long intersection of cycling, art, and street culture, the latest capsule features signature apparel, accessories, and a limited-edition bike build.
MILAN, ITALY - Cinelli has unveiled its latest collaboration with legendary illustrator, graffiti artist, and tattooer OG Mike Giant. Dubbed Cinelli Icons, the collection marks the latest chapter in a long-standing creative relationship between the historic Milanese brand and the iconic artist.
Rooted in a shared history deeply intertwined with fixie and track bike culture, global bike messengers, and fine art, the Cinelli x Mike Giant partnership has produced some of the most recognisable graphics in contemporary cycling. For this release, Mike Giant pays homage to Cinelli’s rich heritage by rendering a collection of the brand’s popular apparel and accessories line, together with Cinelli’s celebrated, compact urban Tutto Mini steel bike, in his signature vector style.
The Cinelli Icons graphic brings together legendary components and milestones from Cinelli’s archives - including the Laser frame, 1A stem, Unicanitor saddle, frame lugs, Bat handlebar, water bottle, Integralter, RAM handlebars, and original handlebar tape. Arranged in the distinct layout of a classic tattoo flash sheet, the composition is anchored by Giant’s signature coiled snake wrapped around Cinelli’s iconic winged ‘C’.
“Mike Giant is an incredibly talented artist. He draws like Cinelli builds, everything by hand and with a passion and love for doing things with authenticity and integrity. Above all, Mike is an amazing human who we are proud to call a friend!” - Victor Luis, Cinelli Chairman
The new release includes a limited-run apparel and accessory capsule alongside a highly exclusive complete bike build:
- Cinelli Icons Organic T-Shirt (€60 / $82): A premium 155gsm organic cotton t-shirt, screen-printed in Italy, featuring the full flash-sheet artwork.
- Cinelli Icons Cotton Cycling Cap (€45 / $58): Screen-printed in Italy, using Cinelli’s traditional Drifter Cap silhouette.
- Cinelli Tutto Mini (Complete €3500 / Frameset €1500): Limited to just 7 complete bikes and a select run of framesets worldwide, engineered with a custom high-spec component package.
The Bike
The Tutto Mini is Cinelli’s compact, versatile city bike, designed to turn everyday urban riding into something more playful. With its 20” wheels, adjustable dropouts, disc brakes and multiple mounting points, it combines practicality with the unmistakable attitude of a Cinelli.
For this special edition, artist Mike Giant transformed the Tutto Mini into a moving canvas. His Cinelli Icons graphic brings together the Laser, 1A stem, Unicanitor saddle, lugs, Bat handlebar, bottle, Integralter, RAM and bar tape, arranged like a traditional tattoo flash sheet. At the centre, Giant’s signature snake coils around Cinelli’s winged C.
The result is a distinctive Art Program edition that connects Cinelli’s product and design heritage with Giant’s visual language. More than a graphic treatment, it is a collectable interpretation of the Cinelli universe, created directly on the bike.
Reflecting the crossover between street culture, high-end engineering, and BMX/cruiser influences, the complete bike features a curated spec list including Paul Components Klampers and Love Levers, White Industries cranks and headset, Maxxis Holy Roller tyres, and Cinelli’s own classic Volare saddle.
