Pinarello Rokh testing

Oggi, nonostante le strade siano ancora sporche di neve della scorsa nevica, secialmente la collina di Torino, non riesco a resistere alla tentazione di provare la mia nuova Pinarello Rokh. La mia prima impressione, per essere una bici da corsa, è che sia estremamente comoda.



Sin dalle prime pedalate sono estremamente soddisfatto dell amia scelta, di utilizzar eun cambio SRAM al posto di cambio Campagnolo come avevo sulla mia precedente Pinarello FP3.  Nonostante abbia fatto la scelta di un gruppo economico SRAM APEX al posto del Campagnolo Centaur mi sento molto mio agio nell' utilizzarlo, le cambiate sono molto precise e non si sentono strani rumori nonostante stia utilizzando una cassetta da 32 denti (rumori che sentivo invece sul Campagnolo quando utilizzavo il 29 denti).


Yes, despite the pure race bikers would blame me (I do not blame me :-)) I mounted a 11-32 cassette and I have got the 11-28 as well to change depending on the type of track.  


 I think for the type of use (see the blog) it is more suitable for me. The frame seems to be very stable during downhill and Superga downhill is a very good testing downhill road.

While I was withdrawing the new Pinarello I met in the shop the Japanese friend Hayashi. Hi Hayashi!!
I'm very happy he coud get the DOGMA frame and bring it to Japan.

My best wishes Hayashi.(Turin view from JPN)

  2. Dear Hayashi-san.

    It makes really happy to see pictures from Torino as well as glad you could achieve to get the Pinarello frame back to Japan.
