Competitive Demo Program
 
Just recently completed a week with a nice Pinarello Paris Carbon as a birthday gift from my family. The program was great and well worth it. The bike arrived on time and was easily assembled with a few hand tools. Then off riding! Discovered a few things-
Pinny 56 feels much bigger than Cervelo 56
Aliante saddle doesn't work as well for me as Arione
Chorus not as smooth as Record, but not by much
Shock absorbency of the Onda system really does work
Pinny just not as nimble and explosive as Cervelo

Net/net would not exchange my Cervelo soloist carbon for Pinarello Paris carbon

Next time maybe I'll try the BMC!

Nice program by Competitive and painless to do.

That's great to know. I've been kicking around the idea of treating myself & taking them up on the BMC SLC01 test ride. Just gotta find a week of good weather!

Interesting. I enjoyed the Pinarello handling much more than Cervelo... They're both amazing bikes, though...
