Hi...I recently purchased a composite carbon/alu framed( incoporating a Fuji carbon fork) Pinnacle road bike. Running gear consists of veloce triple 9 speed, with a campag wheel set. A transfer on the bike states 07 No 85 of 100 limited Edition.
I know that Evans cycles import and sell Pinnacle bikes but they couldn't supply me with any information regarding the bike. The guy I bought it off stated he had bought the bike pretty much in the same condition as I had viewed it. He was the second owner.

My question is has anyone any information about these bikes? Particularly with regards too:
1. Do all 100 bikes have the same campag running gear?
2. When and where were they released? I suspect 2007 but can't be sure.
3. Were all 100 released in Britain as part of a greater edition? (e.g. 1000 released globally but only 100 in Britain).

Any info at all regarding the history of these bikes will be greatly recieved. Or any info from someone that owns and rides one.

Thanks guys...

Bryn

    In reply to your third point. Pinnacle is a brand 'made up' by Evans. They are basically Evans Bikes they are not available outside Evans stores in the UK.

    If it's dark grey with Orange Pinnacle logo, carbon top tube and seat stays then it's the 2007 team RR. I got the frameset with Easton SLX forks from Evans at a bargain £299 a few years back. I use as a winter bike now with Ultegra 6600 groupset.

    It's a nine year old own-brand bike, no more special than a farm stores ltd edition pizza from ASDA.
