Oh no, severe bike lust has struck again (and it's Italian!)

Made my head spin! But okay.

I suspect you know a lot about Pina's!

Nope! I'm not a Pina expert.

It's just that a while back I made a huge spreadsheet with (currently) 3356 road bike geometries - with up to 62 values per geometry. When possible, the spreadsheet calculates missing measurements from those that are given.

Anyway, building the spreadsheet gave me a feel for how different frame brands approach geometry. And Pinarello is in the spreadsheet...

hey.. just got an email that pinarellos will be on sale thru the TDF. Looks like different models each week.

Wow, beautiful bikes!

Checking out the prices makes me feel even better about the cost of my lovely custom Gunnar Of course, they ARE Italian bikes...that look fast sitting still.

Hope you've bought that gorgeous bike by now, I just saw the thread. About 8 weeks ago, I fell for a Pinarello FP3. It's gorgeous, fast, fits me perfectly. I love it!! Also love my other bike, a Cannondale Touring 2, which is a completely different bike ... so now I can happily say I have two world's best bikes! Course, I'll never retire. Save money? Who,me?

Go for it!

I WISH I had bought my bike by now. But moving, starting a new job, and some other unexpected expenses have left me penniless and cleaning my mom's house on my days off to earn extra cash. Soon enough though once I start getting paid I'll be able to get it. Luckily, ordering a frame and building a bike takes time anyway, so I'm not in a rush.

Okay. This bike is drop dead gorgeous. I hope you are able to get it soon so you can take lots of pretty pictures for us! As a soon to be beginner, I can only live vicariously through all of your lovely bikes. Good luck with the new job and stuff!

HA! You just wanted a chance to flaunt your bike again!

Not sure if you were talking to me or WT, but here is mine. It's a Quattro.

Don't blame her. If it were my bike I'd be flaunting it every chance I got! :-)

[gocard]

Haha Muirenn, flaunt it all you'd like! I was talking about everyone's bikes. The Pinarellos are really eye catching and I'm pretty sure they (the bikes) know it. Is there a thread somewhere where people are posting pictures of their bikes in general? I love looking at all the different ones.
