OMNIUM and Cinelli released a limited-edition Supercargo cargo bike, capped at 120 numbered frames and complete bikes, timed to coincide with the 2026 Cycle Messenger World Championships in Milan last week. The bike is finished in the Azzurro Laser colourway drawn from Cinelli's Olympic and World Championship-winning Laser track bike, and marks OMNIUM's first use of Columbus tubing on any of its frames.
The complete bike retails for €3,500 and the framekit for €1,800, available in small, medium and large. A medium complete bike weighs 20kg, and the standard rack weighs 1,320g. The drivetrain is built around an SRAM Apex 11-speed groupset with SRAM Level TL brakes and OMNIUM's own 42-tooth wide-narrow crankset. The frame is double-butted chromoly steel mixed with Columbus tubing, a combination the brands describe as blending Italian steel heritage with modern cargo functionality.

The 32nd edition of the Cycle Messenger World Championships ran from 27 May to 1 June in Milan, the first time Italy hosted the event (we're still trying to work out who exactly won, but it looks like a blast. Both brands are official partners of the championships.
OMNIUM, founded in 2012 by Danish cycle courier Jimmi Bargisen, won the CMWC in 2018 and 2019. Cinelli, founded in Milan in 1948, has deep roots in urban riding culture, including the 2009 Cinelli–MASH collaboration that produced what the brand calls the world's first urban-specific performance track frame.
Columbus, Laser colours, and the messenger connection
The Columbus tubing is the collaboration's main technical change. Columbus is among Italy's oldest and most recognised steel tubing manufacturers, and its appearance on an OMNIUM frame brings Cinelli's material heritage into the build. Combined with the Azzurro Laser paint, the bike draws on the visual and material identity of Cinelli's Laser track lineage.
Compared to the standalone Omnium, the Columbus adds a little racing heritage and an extra piece of bike building history alongside slightly higher grade material.
"I couldn't be more excited about our collaboration with Omnium," Cinelli chairman Victor Luis said. "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."
OMNIUM CEO Matias Ovens said the CMWC timing reinforced the partnership. "Being able to launch during CMWC, which we usually take part in, and then in Milan, it just makes sense," he said.
Alongside the bike, the two brands have released a joint apparel and accessories collection that includes caps, socks, bidons, T-shirts and a messenger bag. The OMNIUM x Cinelli Supercargo is available to order through Cinelli's website.
