New Carbon Fiber Innovation Reduces Weight by 108g
Pinarello has officially introduced the latest version of its Dogma F, a race bike that's been in action with the Ineos Grenadiers team for the past few months. With a focus on reducing weight and improving aerodynamics, the new Dogma F incorporates advanced carbon fiber technology to deliver enhanced performance.
The updated Dogma F drops 108 grams from its weight thanks to the use of Torayca M40X carbon fiber, a material known for its high tensile modulus. This makes the bike stiffer and allows for less material to be used without compromising on strength. As a result, the fully built 53cm Dogma F weighs just 6.63 kg.
Aerodynamic efficiency was another key area of improvement for the Dogma F. The bike's CdA (coefficient of drag) has been reduced by 0.2%, a small but significant gain achieved through design changes. The head tube and bottom bracket junctions now feature extended surface areas, and the front of the bike has been made narrower. An elliptical steerer allows for better cable routing, reducing the bike's frontal profile.
The new Dogma F is exclusively available with disc brakes, though the older rim brake model remains on the market. This change reflects the increasing preference for disc brakes among professional cyclists due to their superior stopping power and performance in various weather conditions.
Pinarello has also made several detailed design enhancements to the Dogma F. The new Talon Ultra Fast cockpit, created by Pinarello's in-house brand Most, is 40g lighter than before and offers improved aerodynamics with narrower handlebars. The thru-axle threads are now integrated into the fork and rear dropout for a smoother finish, and the seat post clamp is fully integrated into the seat tube for a cleaner look.
Insights from professional riders like Geraint Thomas have influenced the Dogma F's development. Pinarello's R&D team analyzed data on energy expenditure and performance during races to optimize the bike's design for weight, aerodynamics, rolling resistance, and comfort. This pro-derived data ensures that the Dogma F meets the high standards required for top-level competition.
The new Dogma F is available in seven different builds, including options with Shimano Dura-Ace Di2, SRAM Red AXS, and Campagnolo Super Record WRL groupsets. Prices for complete builds start from £12,600 / €14,500 / $14,500, while the disc frameset alone costs £5,500 / €6,700 / $6,950. Customers can choose from six color options and 11 sizes.
With its new carbon fiber construction and aerodynamic refinements, the Pinarello Dogma F sets a new benchmark for high-performance race bikes. Whether for professional racers or serious enthusiasts, the latest Dogma F promises a combination of reduced weight and improved speed that will be hard to beat.
