Pinarello has updated its range of F Series road bikes, treating them to revamped tube shapes and profiles, as well as revised geometry and more tire clearance.
Notably, the F Series sees a new head tube design and Pinarello’s E-TICR headset that’s borrowed from its flagship Dogma F, along with a fork rake that has been increased to 47mm (previously 43mm) and a stiffer, more reactive rear triangle.
The F Series consists of five models, the F9, F7, F5, F3 and F1, with the breakdown of the variants based on componentry and the level carbon fiber used. For instance, the F9 and F7 use Toray’s T900, while F5, F3 and F1 rely on lesser modulus T700 and T600, respectively.
Additionally, the F Series features Pinarello’s “Aero-Keel” bottom bracket that was first introduced on the Dogma F last year, a slimmer profile that claims to boost stiffness and offer enough clearance to now accommodate tires up to 32mm.
Elsewhere, the F Series gets a new integrated seat clamp and chainstays that have been lengthened to 411mm, while the F7 and F9 models are fitted with Pinarello’s Most Talon Fast cockpit. The lower-spec models get a more traditional two-piece bar and stem.
“Our history is one of extraordinary victories, iconic bicycles, passion, and expertise. The new Pinarello F was born with this unique DNA, created to offer extremely high performance and guide you straight to victory,” boasts the storied Italian brand.
The Pinarello F series comes in a range of build options that start at $3,000 for the F1, topping out at $11,000 for the F9.
