OMNIUM is to cargo bikes as Cinelli is to road bikes. Now, two iconic brands in their respective cycling genres have joined forces on a limited-edition cargo hauler. And when they say limited, they mean it. Only 120 of these unique OMNIUM x Cinelli Supercargo bikes will be made.
“Omnium builds cargo bikes that ride like nothing else — lightweight, precise, alive. Cinelli builds bicycles that have defined what Italian cycling means for over seventy years. When the two met, the brief was simple: merge two design languages into a single, undeniable object. The Supercargo is the answer. A cargo bike with the soul of a Cinelli Supercorsa, finished in Azzurro Laser — a blue pulled straight from the Cinelli archives, from the era of the Laser track bike.”
According to the brands, these collab Supercargo bikes are “designed to carry everything, fast.” The launch of this limited-edition bike is also meant to showcase both brands’ support of the Cycle Messenger World Championships this weekend on Cinelli’s home streets of Milan. The OMNIUM x Cinelli Supercargo will be on display at the event.
“I couldn’t be more excited about our collaboration with Omnium. We both bring our unique skills and histories to this one — it’s a mashup of Omnium’s functionality and ruggedness blended with Cinelli’s Milanese design language, all driven by our shared passion and love for the global messenger community. Most of all, our teams have become good friends, and we hope this project is just the start of doing cool things together.”
-Cinelli Chairman, Victor Luis
OMNIUM has been a fixture in the cycle messenger and courier community. The brand was founded in 2012 in the cargo-bike capital of Copenhagen, Denmark, by Jimmi Bargisen, a Danish cycle courier. OMNIUM has taken part in the Cycle Messenger World Championships for years, including victories in 2018 and 2019.
“Working with a benchmark brand as Cinelli, undoubtedly is, has been amazing. Obviously, being aligned on our passion for bikes, but also combining our aesthetics and culture has been a great start to a hopefully long-lasting relationship. And naturally, the timing couldn’t have been better, being able to launch during CMWC, which we usually take part in, and then in Milan. It just makes sense.”
-OMNIUM CEO, Matia Ovens
The OMNIUM x Cinelli Supercargo Details
The limited edition Supercargo’s frame comes in three sizes, S, M, and L, and is made with double-butted chromoly steel with Columbus tubing. Each frame is numbered and painted in an Azzuro Laser colorway, an iconic look featured on Cinelli’s World Championship and Olympic-winning Laser track bike. That’s combined with a unique logo featuring the iconic winged C of Cinelli blended into Omnium on the frame.
The bike comes spec’d with a SRAM Apex 11-speed drivetrain, SRAM Level TL brakes, and classy-looking chrome OMNIUM cranks. It also includes full coverage front and rear fenders in silver, plus silver/chrome accents throughout. Buyers have their choice of a black or white Cinelli Volare saddle when purchasing.
The complete bike weighs in at a claimed 20kg in size medium, and the front rack has a claimed weight capacity of 75kg (165 lbs.).
