Pinarello currently holds the title as most successful bike brand in terms of number of Tours de France they have won. And it’s no wonder when you look at the time and mind power that has gone into their designs for their time trial bikes. Since the Tour is a race that is often lost in the mountains, but won in the time trials, having a properly good time trial machine has proved essential over the years.
And when you see a Pinarello time trial bike up close, it is hard not to admire the small touches as much as you do the impressively shaped tubes, and aggressive geometry. But don’t think just because you are not a sponsored athlete that you can’t make full and happy use of a Pinarello time trial bike. They have been designed to be aggressive and race ready, but they will also be comfortable and integrated enough to be used for your triathlon races.
Since they make their time trial bikes exceptionally light, a Pinarello will be a great option even for those hilly tri courses where heavier TT bikes will hamper your smooth pedal stroke. It’s a big commitment to your racing performances, but once you turn the pedals, you’ll never look back.<
