Bianchisti Posted November 21, 2011 Share Is there any shops in Joburg selling these or do I have to go up to ASG? After finishing yesterday I told the missus I need a bigger frame cause I'm not comfortable when climbing. Out popped the "okay you can buy a Pinarello" Who am I to decline I was surprised she knew the brand. Watching the highlights on telly last night my mom wanted to know why the pro's are so quick. The missus replied: "Its because they riding Pinarello's" So of course the Pina is gonna make me faster. Hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Luke. Posted November 21, 2011 Share I'm not sure it will make you faster. The fastest guy in the world saw it as a dealbreaker when Sky told him he would have to ride one. Your wife does sound awesome though.. I'm sure she'll be delighted to learn that lighter wallet does not necessarily equate to faster hubbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotSoBigBen Posted November 21, 2011 Share Sounds like you are scared of the wife Not scared but I have well ingrained the 'IT IS ABOUT THE BIKE' mantra into her mind, I'd hate some okes undoing all that hard/good work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tankman Posted November 22, 2011 Share PM me if you want your Pinarello custom built and not out of the box Can do out of the box too, but building it with your own specks is so much more fun! Edited November 22, 2011 by Tankman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Luke. Posted November 22, 2011 Share So it WAS about the bike? Absolutely, in Cav's case it was about the bike making him slower. A compromise was arrived at and now he is riding a spezarello. http://www.atwistedspoke.com/cavendish-to-ride-pinarello-specialized-hybrid/ Edited November 22, 2011 by Lucky Luke.
