I dont think Pinarello is capable of making a bad bike, but they did make bikes that are a step or two down from the top. To my knowledge their top models in ''94-'95 used top quality Oria and Dedacciai tube sets.
It was Dolmen tubing and CB400Bill had one in the same color than mine equipped with Campy. James Dak has a new old stock Stelvio red one in Kens tubing with Dura Ace 7700. Kens was Dedacciai 18MCDV6. Indurain rode on an Oria frame.
