Pinarello have officially unveiled their 2020 collection, and it includes a lighter version of the recently launched Dogma F12 and F12 disc suitably called the F12 X-Light. You might need to work a couple of extra shifts to get one though, as the price is £6,000 and £6,200 just for the rim and disc framesets respectively.
New Pinarello Dogma F12 and F12 Disk launched
The Dogma F12 X-Light uses Pinarello's Torayca T1100 UD Dream Carbon material, which results in a 100g reduction in weight compared with the standard F12 frame. This unfortunately means a rider weight limit of 85kg, so you'll have to lose pounds from your waist and your wallet if you want one.
Throw on a set of suitably high-end carbon hoops like those in the pic above and with a full Shimano-Dura Ace groupset, and you can work out what kind of ballpark we're talking for a full bike... most likely well exceeding the five figure barrier.
If you're not a bilionaire then you might be more enthused by Pinarello's new Razha Disc. They say it "provides signature Pinarello technology at a competitive price point", and it comes sensibly specced with hydraulic disc brake, clearance for 28mm tyres and a Shimano 105 groupset. The full bike is priced at £2,500.
Also new is the Prince FX disc (prices from £5,500) and the Nytro Gravel, an adventure version of Pinarello's Nytro e-road bike with Fazua's removable Evation motor and battery system - this will set you back £6,000.
The X-Light and Nytro Gravel will be available from selected Pinarello stockists from October 2019, while the Prince FX Disc and Razha Disk are available from July.
Because drivers often find it hard too and nobody’s perfect (indeed a few are bad on purpose)? It’s not really fair to expect people cycling to...
It embarrassed the police...
Even I would say 'report horse ramming to the police ' because just ignoring that report is viewed as less acceptable than if it was a cyclist -...
I wasn't a bike geek or "serious" rider then (not now...) - my ride was a non-suspended 26" wheel "mountain bike" with V-brakes and piano key...
And, bonus, you can get rid of feed zones - just make them carry all their supplies in the basket.
Indistinguishable? I overtook a legal e-bike last week. I am a member of the public and I managed to distinguish it from an illegal e-motorbike...
I tried to make a thread announcing a league code for Velogames, but it seems to have been banished to the aether. The code is 620099424
Speed has nothing to do with it...
I agree! I'd keep the ban and remove powermeters as well, personally, though I'd keep radios for safety reasons.
It looks great. My pockets probably aren't deep enough sadly.
