Description
Giovanni 'Nani' Pinarello, born in 1922, was one of the whole generation of riders from child-rich families who chose a career in cycling. In the era of Coppi, Bartali and Bobet, he was quite a successful amateur rider with loads of won races which eventually earned him a contract as a professional rider.
The year, 1953 then saw him making his dream come true - by using money, which he got as compensation for handing over his Giro d'Italia starting place, for the setup of a bicycle shop and manufacturer in his hometown Treviso.
From then on Pinarello bikes became more and more famous, more and more refined. In 1975 the company finally achieved its first Giro d'Italia victory. And today there are not many brands with a similar number of triumphs in big races.
Our Pinarello Air however is something you will not find in big numbers. In fact, it is really rare.
The years around 1980 saw an aero-bike craze, with streamlined groupsets, clothes and frames. Our Pinarello frameset was a partaker in the aero craze, noticeable from the aero-braze-on-shifters.
