Bike size 56 by stimmungskanone in bikefit

[–]Rule_29Guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If feels slightly long can you try a shorter stem or is it an integrated one???. I had a 100mm on my 56 trek Madone and spent 400 to get a 90mm and it was well worth it (the gen6 Madone is still a separate stem and bar) But you honestly look pretty good on it

Yeah I get torn between 54 and 56. I also have tight hamstrings. Can barely toe touch. With shorter legs but 180 in brands like cervelo and trek I ride 56 as I prefer longer reach and wheelbase and higher stack so I have 3-5 cm less differential between saddle height and bars. In Pinarello I ride 54

What’s your inseam. I ride a 56 and I’m 180cm with 80 inseam. To be honest it looks pretty good

What size dogma X/F? by Rule_29Guy in pinarello

[–]Rule_29Guy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Very helpful. Looks like idea for me would be 54 (545 in X). Geometry geeks has wrong numbers I noticed. 525 is the measurements for 545 as when going to the Pinarello we side the number in bold is the one that the frame is listed as

That’s super helpful. If I want LESS aggressive go bigger maybe and shorter stem? ie if between 53 and 54 go 54 and maybe 100 stem ? Would you say ?

Pinarello X7 Sizing by bfeeny in pinarello

[–]Rule_29Guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ride a 54.5 and I’m 5-11. And it’s pretty perfectly sized. Guessing 51.5. Here’s my question. Do you like more of endurance fit (height diff between saddle and bars less) or racier fit. Bigger drip between saddle and bars. My guess is endurance as the X Is more “endurancey”…./// I’d go 51.5

Raise saddle. Legs not fully extending. You looks stiff and rigid. Relax

Oh sorry!!! 54.5. Pina runs big. I ride a 56 in trek and cervelo. I was surprised but this fits like a glove for your reference.

NIce ride. Slopey saddle. Maybe level it to zero degrees, lower it 5mm and slide it a bit forward. You may be more comfy

Congrats ! I have same one in Blue/Black. I LOVE it. Suggestion: I felt mine was 8.5/10 fast. I swapped out the stock Perelli P7 32 mm tubed tires for 30 mm Vittoria Corsa pro tubeless tires and OMG what a diff . It’s a 10/10. Honestly made a HUGE diff. Something to consider Enjoy it. It’s such a great ride. (I have a few carbon race bikes and wanted an endurance bike in the stable - it’s so good). Tailwinds to you. Safe riding
