The Pinarello F5 105 Di2 Disc Road Bike is a race bike that borrows much from the top-end Dogma F, but makes it a little more accessible in terms of price. Delivering versatile performance, this bike is as capable in the mountains as it is on fast flats and technical descents. Constructed from T700 carbon, the frame achieves a good balance of a stiff, responsive ride, compliance and vibration absorption. Carbon Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) optimises the frame to ensure it's stiff and strong exactly where required.
The racing geometry is based on that of the Dogma F, and many of the aerodynamic features have been brought across too, including the Flatback truncated airfoil tube profiles, the aero seatpost and TiCr full cable integration, while asymmetric chainstays improve lateral stiffness and enhance the handling. Pinarello has introduced a newly designed seat clamp that's hidden, compact, aero and lightweight. Additionally, an asymmetric seatstay design provides better balance and creates a lively ride feel.
The 'Made4you' concept has been applied to thisPinarello Fmeaning that every rider, regardless of height, will get the same feel and performance. Handlebar width, stem length and crank length are all frame size specific, making it easier to dial in the bike perfectly.
Shimano's latest groupset in the electronic line-up;105 Di2, brings performance at better value, and is the perfect complement to this build. A wide gear range and smooth, precise shifting is paired with powerful hydraulic braking that's effective in all conditions. Fulcrum 800 wheels are fiitted with Pirelli P7 Sport clincher tyres for good traction, fast rolling and puncture protection.
