As for italian motorcycle brands, Pinarello is young, with Giovani ‘Nani’ Pinarello opening the doors of his studio in 1952. But, since seven of France’s last ten Tours were won on a Pinarello motorcycle, clearly, Nani was on something special.
Nani had a season as a professional driver, chasing races across Europe from 1946 to 1952; His most striking result was winning the Maglia Nera (black jersey) for taking the last position of the 34th Giro d’Italia. Winning the black jersey was not an easy task, and the runners hid in barns and poked the time to waste: Nani enjoyed telling his plans to his position at the back of the peloton.
Scheduled to compete in the 1952 Giro, Nani was forced to cede his position on the list to Pasqualino Fornara; however, the team paid him 100,000 pounds to retire, and the Italian used that cash to invest in a small motorcycle shop that would eventually be the logo we know today. Half a century later, Pinarello motorcycles have discovered their way to the most sensible step of podiums in the most important races in the world. With Nani’s son, Faust, now at the helm, the majority stake in the logo takes place through L Catterton, a personal equity company concerned with luxury logos such as Louis Vuitton, Moet and Hennessy, among others.
Pinarello remains a boutique logo, and its motorcycles are priced higher, however, the frames offer a smart generation backed by a modern race effects sheet that no other logo can match.

Flagship racing motorcycle at a great price
Price: at $9,000 / $6500 (box) / AU $9,299 (box) Brakes: rim, disc Frame: Carbon Type: Race Sizes: 42-62cm
Dogma de Pinarello is the brand’s racing platform and the F12 is the most recent evolution of the framework. The existing Team Ineos racing bike, the geometry has hardly changed from the F10, with the exception of a shorter guide tube and a longer leg in the duration of the crown.
The new F12 is a remarkable aerodynamic motorcycle and is designed around the built-in MOST Talon cab which, combined with a new fork and frame, is expected to offer a gain of 8 watts at 40 km/h. Pinarello also claims that the new motorcycle offers a 10% improvement in the side stiffness of the F10.
Available in the rim and disc brake versions, it now uses direct mount brakes, which offer more strength than its single pivot competitors. Pinarello not only bolted the rotors to the frame and the poorly waxed disc, he designed a new fork that would be offering 40% relief in the braking force of the brake stirrup.
With thirteen frame sizes available and 16 combinations of rudder width and stem life of the Talon Ultra, Pinarello offers the Dogma F12 in 208 combinations.
But that doesn’t stop the Dogma F12 from also being available in an X-Light edition with rim and disc brakes and is expected to lose 100g of the weight of the popular motorcycle frame.
It has degraded to a second-tier racing bike, but this affects the price.
Price: from 4,499 / 5,999 / $8,999 AU Brakes: Rim, Disc Frame: Carbon Type: Race Sizes: 42-62cm
Even if it has been replaced, the F10 does not stay out. With stroke geometry, the F10 is available in rim and disc brake versions and features the pinarello brand’s asymmetric frame.
In the geometry graph, it’s quite similar to F8, but that’s where the resemblance ends. As you’d expect from any new edition of a bike, it’s stiffer, more powerful and lighter than its predecessor, however, the F10 has also gained primary aerodynamic improvements, adding the concave diagonal tube, taken from the VT-shaped Bolide bike.
The F10 was also Pinarello’s first racing motorcycle equipped with disc brakes. At its launch, Fausto Pinarello said he didn’t think race motorcycles needed disc brakes. Approximately six months later, the F10 Disk was launched, with 12 mm of front and rear transverse axles and a new reinforced fork and the “ForkFlap”, a small aerodynamic profile that is intended for air circulation.
Racing motorcycle designed for difficult roads
Price: From 5,000 (box) / $5,999 / AU $ N / A Brakes: rim, disc Frame: Carbon Type: Race Sizes: 42-62cm
Designed for Team Sky to be used in spring classics, the Dogma K10 features a slightly more comfortable geometry set for 28mm tires and Pinarello’s electronically controlled eDSS suspension option.
The elastomer spring can be flexed with the bases to offer 11 mm of to melt square edges or cobblestones. It uses a cost-over design with a small outdoor oil tank with a hydraulic damper that can stumble upon the effects and an opening in a hundred milliseconds by staying open until the road surface softens.
The small rear shock that is designed to weigh 320 g can be attached and controlled via a Garmin or the E-Link junction box in the diagonal tube.
Pinarello’s electric road motorcycle is an F10 with a little extra power
Price: Starting at 5,999 / $1,639 / AU $ for displaying Brakes: Disc Frame: Carbon Type: Electric Motorcycle Sizes: 44-58cm
At first glance, the Pinarello Nytro looks like a Dogma with a strong descent tube, actually concealing a Fauza electric motorcycle formula and a battery that can charge up to 400w of force and 60nm of torque.
The frame borrows design elements from the F10 and is made of T700 carbon, the guide wheel and tube expand for solid handling and a comfortable position.
Only available with disc brakes, the Nytro is available in road and gravel versions.
You can buy two high-end road motorcycles for the value of this suspended frame
Price: at 7,500 (box) / $10,000 (box) / AU $ N / A Brakes: Rim Frame: Carbon Type: Race Sizes: 53-57.5 cm
If the rear suspension is rarely enough for you, the Dogma FS incorporates the brand’s eDDS suspensions and adds the HiRide suspension fork to the front. Like the rear, the front suspension fork is electronically controlled and gives 20 mm of thanks to a hydraulically controlled internal steel coil spring.
Both use built-in sensors that identify and react to road conditions, customizing the damping of both ends independently so that no power is lost when wallowing on the trip.
Since the Dogma FS is specially designed for rough roads and has rubber space up to 28c, we’re surprised to see it only on rim brakes.
A Pinarello on the limit of for money
Price: from 3,300 / 4,150 / $6,499 AU Brakes: Rim, Disc Frame: Carbon Type: Race Sizes: 52-56cm
When the Pinarello Prince was launched, it was the brand’s flagship driving force before disappearing completely from the range. In 2018, he returned and, at first glance, looks like the Dogma. It will locate the asymmetric frame profile, shielded bottle holder and flat-back tube. The motorcycle is available in popular geometries and Easy Fit, the first being a little straighter than the Dogma.
Pinarello finds it to downplay the Prince’s importance with words like “docile” to describe the motorcycle in his marketing materials, but make no mistake: it is far from a very slow-driving motorcycle fund.
Available in the Ultegra version, the Prince has space for tyres up to 28C and component prices are close to the value of the Dogma. The savings are in components thanks to the decrease in the quality of the T700 that makes up the frame. The Prince FX sees a more expensive T900 carbon and can be purchased with rim brakes or single-pivot discs.
Almost like Dogma, at a fraction of the price
Price: from 3,000 / $2,250 / $5,399 AU Brakes: Rim, Disc Frame: Carbon Type: Versatile Sizes: 44-59.5 cm
Launched in 2016, the Gan is Pinarello’s permanent power bike; however, it is derived from the F8 with a head angle of 72.8 degrees and a seat angle of 73.4 degrees (size 540). Pinarello offers a more comfortable GanK that sees a shorter and more sensitive tube, a little more stack and FlexStays brands on the back
The frame is made of T600 carbon, which adds weight and reduces stiffness, but those lower quality carbons are a little more resistant to collision damage. While the Gan gets the asymmetric frame, the Wave fork, the internal routing of the cables, a threaded pedal box and flat-backed tubes; It lacks some of the more complex features, such as the armored bottle holder, and there is only room for a 25C tire: the Gan K will take a 28C.
All Gans are built with a Shimano 105 group, MOST bars, a gallows and a saddle and Fulcrum Racing Sport or Racing 6 DB wheels on the brakes.
A sturdy motorcycle with spicy tendencies
Price: from 3,000 / $2,250 / $5,399 AU Brakes: Disc Frame: Carbon Type: Resistance Sizes: 43-60cm
Based on the Gan K, the Paris is undoubtedly set as a permanent power bike, but still takes into account the brand’s most daring models, adding Wave forks and cables, aerodynamic landmarks and exaggerated asymmetry. It would include the DNA of the brand’s racing, while providing a solid and comfortable ride.
There is only one option, the Paris frame is built with a cheaper T600 Toray carbon fiber. The weight of the frame is 980 grams for a 53 cm.
The free space for the tyres is estimated at 30 mm, which remains a cautious tip of Pinarello with a total of 42 mm of terrain with which to play the bases and even more, forty-five mm, forks.
Dusty racing bike
Price: From $4,500 / 5,200 / AU $ N / A Brakes: Disc Frame: Carbon Type: Gravier Sizes: 44-59.5 cm
Gravel motorcycles have exploded in recent years, and although Pinarello has presented Gan GR for some seasons, the Grevil is its first full-fledged gravel shredder. Subsequent access to the segment allowed the rest of the industry to conform to axle and brake standards, as well as geometries and the like, allowing the Grevil to stay up-to-date for more than six months.
The Grevil will settle for a tire up to 700c x 38 mm or 650b x 2.1 inches for difficult times; The motorcycle also features flat-mount disc brakes, 12mm cross-axles and lower transmission side bases for maximum free space for tires and tray; in fact, the entire rear component is incredibly asymmetrical.
Pinarello offers two versions of the gravel, the Grevil and the Grevil, with the only difference that the first one is made of T700 DU carbon, and the latest is manufactured the Torayca T1100 1k Dream Carbon as the F12.
Since we’re talking about a Pinarello here, it’s unexpected to see the same Flatback tube, a wavy fork with fork flaps and an armored bottle holder.
Pinarello beginner
Price: From $2,700 / 1,600 / AU $ N / A Brakes: Disc Frame: Carbon Type: Versatile Sizes: 44-59.5 cm
With a relatively classic Italian geometry that surprises with its stability above agility, the Angliru is a perfect motorcycle for beginners. The logo has incorporated a bit of stack and reduced diversity to suit cyclists who might not have evolved flexibility for a more competitive fit.
The motorcycle sees an asymmetric frame profile and the routing of Think2 cables that allows mechanical and electrical transmissions; We ventured to assume that an Angliru owner would transfer to a new motorcycle before installing a new transmission.
Pinarello Deals feels the price
Price: From 1,599 / 1,639 / AU $ N / A Brakes: Disc Frame: Carbon Type: Resistance Sizes: 44-59.5 cm
Occupying the entry level of the Pinarello range, the Razha features comfortable geometry, a longer wheelbase and loose angles for solid handling. The frame is made of T600 carbon and shows many design signs from the moment the logo went through its ultra-wavy phase.
Even if you’re in such a low place in the diversity of brands, the motorcycle still benefits from a crack-free stressed pedal case, internal cable routing and an asymmetric frame profile.
Pinarello Rhaza models are available in rim and disc varieties, and will support a tyre up to 28 mm.
For the TT specialist with a lot of money
Price: at $7,000 / 7,500 / AU $ N / A Brakes: Rim, Disc Frame: Carbon Type: Time trial, triathlon Sizes: 45-54 cm
The TT that Pinarello will offer is the Bolide that made his debut at the 2016 Giro d’Italia. For this version, the logo reduces the weight a little and pushes the UCI regulations regarding the aerodynamic shape.
The Bolide is where we first saw the tips of the fork and the concave diagonal tube, designed to keep the pilot’s can out of the wind, a feature that has now permeated the brand range.
The Bolide is available in a ‘road’ brake edition on the rim, as well as in triathlon editions with two-disc brakes, which have more pronounced aerodynamic tubes because the motorcycle is no longer subject to ICU regulations and has an integrated top tube. and a diagonal tube box. that can be deleted.
Pinarello offers a wide variety of motorcycles, with everything from the road racing badge, Dogma, to travelers and even mountain motorcycles and electric mountain motorcycles.
Undoubtedly ahead of its time when it comes to gender-specific geometries, Pinarello delivers its motorcycles in a single unisex environment and supplies motorcycles to the WorldTour for men and women, if its marketing branch has the same record.
Most of the brand’s frames are available in rim and “disc” versions, and some can be up to thirteen sizes, designated depending on the length of the saddle tube, ranging from 420 mm to 620 mm. Some of the brand’s mounts are available in a popular and casual “Easy Fit” geometry.
Whenever possible, Pinarello uses its MORE internal COMPONENTS logo to finish motorcycles and expects to see rods, rods, saddle rods and sister logo saddles.
