I might need another bike rack soon looking at the way this is going. Hsemate has just decided to take up Triathlon and managed to borrow a old racer to train. And a new collection to the Team. Pinarello FP3.Anyone keen to get a 'light' bike, should be looking at Scott or elsewhere but not here.
Frame weight + Ultegra grouppo, Most oversized Crank and Look Pedals: 4.8kg (after the handlebars have been changed)
This exlcudes the wheels, seat post and saddle. Frameweight is a modest 1100g which is not too far off the mark but its the handlebar, seatpost, saddle which lets it down! Thankfully I think Pinarello realised this, as the seatpost is 31.6mm. An easy alternative to look for a lighter replacement.
One thing I cannot fault: Riding the same route every Saturday on an aluminium and converting to carbon, the damping properties are amazing. Not sure if its just the properties of carbon or the propriety ONDA forks, but every bump and humps used to send jolts up my back/neck but not anymore.
