The updated Pinarello F series is a dedicated race bike designed to deliver the brand's flagship performance to privateer racers and fast everyday riders. For this generation, Pinarello brings the aerodynamic concepts of the WorldTour-level Dogma F downmarket. The revised frame features an elliptical steerer tube, a narrower head tube, and an Aero Keel bottom bracket to smooth turbulent airflow.
While it shares its aggressive silhouette with the top-tier race machines, the F series introduces a touch of practicality with tire clearance expanded to 32mm. This makes the platform better suited for long training days on imperfect pavement. It is worth noting that this update applies to the F5, F7, and F9 tiers; the entry-level F1 model remains on the previous generation's frame design. Ultimately, the F series is positioned for riders who want uncompromising speed and precise handling without the absolute premium of a flagship badge.

Geometry & fit.
9 sizes published.
Pinarello designed the F series with the exact same geometry as the Dogma F, ensuring an aggressive, race-oriented rider posture. The fit is intended for riders comfortable with a low front end and a stretched reach, optimizing aerodynamics and power output over long efforts. To match the flagship's handling dynamics, Pinarello updated the Onda fork with a 47mm rake, which keeps the steering sharp and responsive.
One of the platform's greatest strengths is its extensive sizing range. Pinarello offers the frame in nine distinct sizes, from 425 to 580. This granular approach allows riders to achieve a near-custom fit without relying on extreme stem lengths or excessive spacer stacks, preserving both the bike's handling characteristics and its clean aesthetic.
On the higher-tier builds, the fit is further shaped by the integrated MOST Talon Ultra Light cockpit. This one-piece bar and stem features a modern aerodynamic profile with a three-centimeter flare, providing a narrow stance at the hoods for aerodynamic efficiency while maintaining a wider, stable base in the drops for sprinting and descending.

The lineup.
4 builds, ranging $3,500 – $11,000.
The Pinarello F series lineup is divided by carbon layup and component spec, scaling from accessible mechanical shifting to pro-level electronic groupsets. The entry-level F1 uses Torayca T600 carbon and a mechanical Shimano 105 drivetrain, though it utilizes the previous generation's frame shape and traditional two-piece cockpit.
Moving to the updated frame design, the F5 upgrades to Torayca T700 carbon and Shimano 105 Di2 electronic shifting, rolling on an alloy Fulcrum Racing 800 DB wheelset. This build hits the sweet spot for riders wanting the new aerodynamic tube shapes and fully hidden E-TiCR cable routing without a premium price tag.
The F7 and F9 represent the top tier, both utilizing lighter, stiffer Torayca T900 carbon that brings the frame weight remarkably close to the flagship Dogma. The F7 is equipped with Shimano Ultegra Di2, while the F9 features Dura-Ace Di2. Both of these premium builds upgrade to the integrated MOST Talon Ultra Light carbon cockpit and MOST Ultrafast 40 carbon disc wheels, delivering a complete race-ready package straight out of the box.
From the press.
3 reviews from the cycling press.
Reviewers consistently note that the F series successfully replicates the ride character of Pinarello's flagship race bikes. The overarching consensus is that the bike delivers "virtually all of the Dogma F’s performance at (slightly) more palatable prices" (Cycling Magazine). On the road, this translates to a highly rigid pedaling platform that responds immediately to rider input. When accelerating out of the saddle, testers found the bike "jumps forward with no hesitation" (Bike Rumor), maintaining momentum efficiently on rolling terrain.
Handling is frequently highlighted as a core strength, characterized by high-speed stability and sharp cornering. The front end tracks predictably through technical descents, and the chassis remains "impeccable at very high speeds, even on poor pavement" (Cyclonline). Testers felt the bike tipped into corners intuitively, requiring only subtle weight shifts to hold a tight line.
The primary tradeoff noted by reviewers is overall weight, particularly on the lower-tier builds. While the top-end F9 feels agile on sustained climbs, heavier mid-tier models require more effort on steep gradients. However, reviewers agreed that the frame's exceptional stiffness helps mitigate the weight penalty, ensuring that power transfer remains direct. Despite the rigid bottom bracket and race-focused design, testers were pleasantly surprised by the bike's vibration damping, noting that the expanded tire clearance allows riders to tune the ride for rougher roads without sacrificing speed.
