Pinarello Dogma F12 launched alongside Team Ineos
Pinarello has launched its new flagship race bike, the Pinarello Dogma F12. The all-new frameset features a more angular design than the outgoing model and will be raced on by Team Ineos.
Pinarello says the new model’s frame design and tubing results in a drag reduction of 7.3 per cent versus the Pinarello Dogma F10 and also has an improvement in lateral stiffness in the bottom bracket area of 10 per cent through the use of Torayca 1100 1k carbon.
The new Pinarello Dogma F12 is available in rim brake or disc brake options with the rim brake version using direct mount calipers for improved braking performance.
As with other recently released flagship framesets, the Pinarello Dogma F12 includes the frame, fork, seat post and new handlebar system. Most, Pinarello’s component company, have also launched the new Talon Ultra handlebar/stem system, which is lighter, stiffer and more aerodynamic than the previous handlebar system from the company.
The new handlebar and frame combine for a new cable routing system to contribute to the new aerodynamic performance, which Pinarello say results in no visible cables or cable stoppers on the frame and is suitable for both mechanical or electronic groupsets.
13 frame sizes are available in both models of the new bike from 420mm to 620mm alongside 16 handlebar sizes, although regular stem/handlebar setups are also compatible.
