Hi ASG - Care to shed some light on the new 2011 range of Pinarello bikes?

New Paris over the Prince, so Prince now #4 in the range after Dogma,Kobh,Paris, then FP4??

 

Are they not stuffing around like Nissan has been in SA, launching and replacing models and thereby "losing" much of its appeal in stead of Toyota keeping the Corolla and just improving it? All bike brands keep their model names i.e. Specialized Tarmac SL/SL2/SL3. Bianchi 928,928L,928SL,928SL ISP.

Hi Bontie,

 

Thanks for your post!

 

Pinarello has this habit to use old model names a second time around like Dogma 2010 and Paris 2011 which is confusing - even to us at times But judging by the incredible demand for these bikes (eg. DOGMA) I think they are doing something right. At the distributor meetings I have to say it is 50/50 - half the guys like the idea of re-using the names and the rest feel it is confusing. In SA we have actually found it to be a "non-issue".

 

 

The official 2010 / 2011 line for Pinarello Road bikes is:

 

1. DOGMA & KOBH (in essence DOGMA with more comfortable geometry for endurance racing or cobble stone racing)

2. PARIS (new Paris to be launched later this year - probably at 94.7)

3. FP7

4. QUATTRO (New - will be launched later in the year - probably at 94.7)

5. FP3

6. FP2

7. FP1

 

Some of the models you mentioned have been dropped for 2011 although they are still "floating around" in the market eg. Prince (we still sell a few of these as well).

 

You can view the current range we are carrying in SA on our website: www.asgsport.co.za - follow links to Pianrello catalogue.

 

Hope this answers your question?

 

Regards

ASG

 

Ps. Look out for the launch of the new Pinarello MTB series...coming soon!
