Strengths: - Stiff, fast, looks great, relatively low priceWeaknesses: -MOST brand components are pretty low quality, besides the crank which is serving me just fine. The seatpost is a terrible design, weighs a ton, and is a rare size (31.0m) that is hard to exchange. The saddle is what you would expect on a $500 bike. The bars are ok, as is the stem; both are alloy.Bottom Line: Great bike for the money. Came equipped with ultegra, besides the MOST crank. A little heavy, but not too bad. Very stiff, very responsive. Looks great. Mine came equipped with shimano r550 wheels, which are actually really nice, although they are a bit heavy.
Favorite Ride: Hills
Price Paid:

Strengths: Great looking frame and finish. Mostly excellent components for the price. Carbon, but not a dead ride.Weaknesses: None so far.Bottom Line: I just got this bike. The frame is the same as the much costlier F4:13 (built on same molds) but with a lesser grade of carbon to make it more affordable. Even though I just got it, I can tell it is an amazing machine. The geometry is pretty traditional, and the thing really moves. Climbs great, and accelerates quickly on flats. I think Pinarello really hit the mark selling this as a built-up bike. The Ultegra drive train is crisp and reliable, as per its reputation. I was a little skeptical about some of the other components, but the Shimano wheels are reasonably light, and climb well. The other components (cranks, seat, etc) are mostly the Pinarello MOST house brand, and are at least adequate. Plus, love the shape of that cool ONDA fork. I also ride a Specialized Tarmac and the differences are apparent--the Tarmac is a great bike, and one I will still use, esp for long distance rides. The Pinarello is obviously stiffer, but this make it move quicker, with little compromise in the comfort department---it still soaks up alot of the rough spots on the urban roads I occasionally ride on.
Favorite Ride: Long and hilly, Western NJ
Price Paid:
$2500.00
