    I'm not much of a Pinarello fan, but I think that F8 looks pretty nice. It's also nice to see that they have shaved a fair bit of weight compared to the previous generation.
    Red bikes are the fastest.

    Think I'd put SRAM Red on it with a load of ENVE finishing kit in my ideal world...

    You saw 120g off the frame? Wouldn't that compromise it's strength? And do you use a special carbon fibre saw?
    It's only a bit of sport, Mun. Relax and enjoy the racing.

    The F8 is actually quite nice. I love the naked carbon. Shocking.

    Was going to buy one but what with being only 16% more balanced I think I'll take a pass.

    Serious question? I'm guessing that 16% more balanced is pretty important but WTF are they trying to say? If anything? :? :roll:

    Froome said the F8 was by far the best bike he'd ever ridden

    Surely that's all you need to know.

    He's hardly going to say it's crap is he? I'd wait for a proper review from an impartial tester before getting my penis out TBH.

    Absolutely. When a Pro rider says it's the greatest, I can't get my credit card out fast enough.

    I wonder if any pro riders will now publicly state their dislike of the pre F8 Dogmas now, I assume not as they are still in teams sponsored by Pinarello.

    I would expect a lot of "it's not about the bike, my legs do the talking" from those teams (followed by an orgasmic squeal from a certain someone...)

    Chrome paint? This has been around for a while on custom cars but I haven't seen it on a bike yet.
