Cinelli made eight "pilot project" mountain bikes before compromising and farming their MTB building out to Gary Fisher. I'm fortunate enough to own two. This one, in classic Laser Blue, I built up for my wife as a singlespeed trail rocket,. Pics to come

Yeah, unfortunately they didn't stick with making their own MTBs and farmed it out to Fisher. No idea what you mean by the fork, but, being that it's from 1990, and has provided me with consistent 100mm compression and rebound, and it's never bottomed out, I don't see the problem.
