Hi all. Thought I’d share my recent build… I live in an area of the UK called the Fens, basically fields, marshes and man-made rivers for miles and absolutely flat all the way to the sea. Big skies, gravel and mud.
I wanted to build a simple singlespeed with the widest tyres possible, so spent months searching for the right frame. I ended up with the Cinelli Tutto 2020; I wasn’t instantly sold on the look but the geometry was perfect.
​
* Miche Primato crankset (165/44)
* Halo Clickster (16T)
* Shimano Deore XT BR-T780 with Cane Creek Drop V Brake Levers
* Mavic Open Pros with Miche Primato hubs
* Handlebars from my old Genesis Flyer
* WTC Raddler 44mm tyres
It turned out to be a super aggressive bike, I’m right on top of the fork which is great fun. Also absolutely love the tyres, they roll effortlessly on road and I haven’t slipped once in the mud/gravel even at road speeds.

Nice looking bike. Seems just right for the beautiful place where you live and ride. Thanks for sharing both.

This geometry, drop bars and 44mm tires look just amazing. Thanks for sharing

I like wider tires even on a road bike. I don’t buy into that they make you slower.

It looks pocket sized, how big is the frame?

I literally just did the same thing. With “the same” bike. I had to hunt pretty hard for the older color though, the gray with the orange and purple fork. I’ve never ever posted on reddit in my life, maybe I should post a pic of it.

Duuuude I just put ~~42cm~~ 42MM tires on my KILO WT, I’m so happy with them. I couldn’t find any cheap 44’s 😁
