Description
Giovanni 'Nani' Pinarello, born in 1922, was one of a whole generation of athletes 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. This eventually earned him a contract as professional rider.
The year of 1953 then saw him making his dream come true, by using money, which he got as a compensation for handing over his starting place in the Giro, for the setup of a bicycle shop and manufacture 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.
So by buying a Pinnarello Racing bike you not only buy something beautiful but you also acquire some of this winning-spirit. Just like with our bike here:
The soul and bones of this stunning bicycle are represented by its classic, but highly sophisticated Pinarello Stelvio steel frame
. It is made of exquisite Dedacciai Zero Uno tubes, specially made for Pinarello. Though these tubes and the strong lugs are lightly oversized, they still look just as elegant as the most classic 1" tubed frames. Chromed front and rear stays lend the whole construction a subtle lightness.
Such a fine piece deserves only the best components and so this Pinarello is fitted with a top-notch Shimano Dura Ace groupset.
This is where performance meets refinement.
A bike which is good for fast training rides as well as relaxed jaunts.
