Does anybody know what has happened to Pinarello Sibilo TT bike? It has never been presented on Pinarello official website but it was used by Movistar some time ago. It seems very strange to me because the Sibilo was a bit more refined than the Bolide and I think it had good chances of becoming a natural Bolide's successor.

    My understanding was that the Bolide was developed with heavy input from Sky.. and Sky obviously didn't want other teams using it so Pinarello had to develop the Sibilo as well? They probably decided to drop it from the range when they stopped sponsoring Movistar and there was no longer a need for anything other than the Bolide?
