From: 6 miles inland from the coast of Sussex, in the South East of England

Bikes: Dale MT2000. Bianchi FS920 Kona Explosif. Giant TCR C. Boreas Ignis. Pinarello Fp Uno.

I have just bought a new Pinarello FP Uno. My other bikes are now five years old and are a Boreas Igis Lightweight alloy frame and a mix of ultegra and 105. Similar set up on the Giant TCR-C.

The Pinnie is triple butted- (Not so) lightweight aluminium and Tiagra throughout.

The improvement in ride quality and the Tiagra groupset set puts it on a par with the other two.

If this is the change in quality and ride in only 5 years- I do not like riding old technology. Thank goodness I did not try a Dogma as I can't afford one.
