Finally now the 2 riders of Team Ineos Grenadiers, namely the world champion Pauline Ferrand-Prévot and her Olympic mate Tom Pidcock, will be able to get off their "camouflaged" BMC frames and ride a brand new MTB developed for them, namely the new Pinarello Dogma XC Full Suspension.
The bike will make its official debut at the opening round of the XCO Nové Město World Cup in the Czech Republic this weekend. Even if the 2 riders have already had the opportunity to try it both in training and in competition.
ALL THE INFO ON THE NOVE MESTO WORLD CUP
Ferrand-Prévot won the XCO French Cup a few weeks ago, and Pidcock last weekend he won in Switzerland with a fantastic performance. Pinarello declares that the 2 riders have been actively involved in the design and development of the new bike.
Working with Pinarello on developing the bike has been fantastic. It was exciting to receive and test the bike, my first impression is that they have developed an amazingly fast bike. It has a good mix of lightness, responsiveness and stiffness. Pinarello's engineers have constantly asked us for feedback and it's fun to be part of the development - Pauline Ferrand Prevot
Pidcock required extreme stiffness in the rear triangle and bottom bracket to deliver maximum responsiveness, simple yet progressive kinematics to optimize travel and rebound. Pidcock's and Prevot's bikes are the same, only the (custom) paint job will change. On Pidcock's bike we find the golden decoys of victory at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, while the rainbow stripes modeled on Ferrand-Prévot honor his four victories at the XC World Championships in Les Gets, France, last August.
