Buon giorno, bella... My new Pinarello F4:13 is built!

Well, the sun came out to give me a chance for some photos... The build is done! Granted, it's the "interim" build before the wheels and components can be upgraded, but this is how she'll look for the next few months. Hell, she's beautiful already!











Stiff BB? What are you talking about?


The Aliante Carbon is a nice match, methinks...


I took her around the parking lot and can't believe the stiffness of this frame--My Flyte was a pretty stiff AL frame, and it was pretty mushy in the BB compared to this. Cornering--Oh my God, it's nice. And the few familiar bumps in the lot felt smoothed out. Anyway, more notes on the ride later...
