Sworks SL6,SL7 & SL8 all look similar frame shape at a glance. Same with Pinarello F12,1st gen F & and this new F. My point is this proves they're bringing them out to close together like cookies coming out of a cookie cutter. Wait 5 or 6 years between models rather than this Apple iphone business model.
Made in China painted and decals applied in Italy. Hence the sticker made in 🇮🇹 if at least 10% of production is done in Italy. For that money I would much rather have a steel Battaglin.
prototype in Italy Pinarello factory mass production Still made in China and Taiwan there is no such thing as an "authentic" frame anymore🤣I rather pay for an OME frame than buy from a distributor that you paying 3x or even 4x times higher and still produces from the same factory 🤣
Everybody can be impressed by glorious Italian food. A good quality hotel. And the stunning mountains of the Dolomites. Especially when they have some mint bikes to test out. Sad the weather didn’t work.
Very insightful interview with great questions for the R&D engineer! I would have liked to hear his opinion on the trend towards shorter cranks... Would they alter aero design strategies or frame geometry or is it a gimmick/fad that isn't worth consideration?
