Pinarello is like a ferrari of bike, looks so futuristic and manly and the Cervelo is like the most fancy one in look. I pick both Cervelo and Pinarello
I own a Pinarello F12, the bike is flat out fast and handles like nothing else. All these bikes are fine machines, for me I love the Pinarello looks all the way back the Think 2. You strip off the paint (maybe not the Cervélo in this group) and it is difficult to tell them apart. That will never be the case with Pinarello.
For me, the pinarello and sl7 stand out. They just look amazing. Am waiting for the new tarmac to make it mine (conditional that they have nice colors) if not, then white pinarello
The video is superb and much needed for those who would like to buy a new frame and did not have the opportunity to try any of those bikes. Let me say that you have done a wonderful job on this one and great summary. I follow you and your channel and would like to see more nice and creative content that caters for the riders needs
it wasn't long ago that 28mm tyres were regarded as super wide, massive, gigantic and only used in winter rides. I ditched 25mm for 28mm back around 2017. The difference in comfort was easily noticable and being more comfortable especially on longer rides led to better performance too.
Great video! But would love to see more videos of some other brands like Scott, Bianchi, giant and lapierre. Seen so many videos of sl7s and Pinarello now.
You can get a Pinarello F5 with 105 di2 for the price of a Dogma F frame. Yes it is lower grade carbon but do you need Dogma levels? I bought the F7 with Ultegra Di2 and upgraded the wheels to Zipp 404 and the tires to Vittoria Corsa Pro's. In total the bike costs about 7300 like this if you can get a good deal. With Assioma power meter pedals, two elite bottle cages and camelbak bottles, garmin mount and garmin 840 the bikes comes in complete at 8.5 kilos. Not heavy by no means. Take out the pedals and all other stuff easily a 7.5 kilo bike. So the new F series from Pinarello is the value for money bike. It is slightly cheaper than a non s-works sl7 with similar equipment and any s5 by a large margin.
The CERVELO S5 cockpit was not designed to cheat the wind it was a way the engineers came up with the solution of running mechanical cables and reducing the bends.
Truth @14:36. I was really torn on the F and S7, ended going for an F with CSR. Couldn’t stand the grouppo so ended up rebuilding it with a 1 x system sram, now l love it. Reality is love to ride what l build, this being number 26 in a long line of beautiful and purposeful machines. The F has been my biggest joy to date.
I have the s5 as well and I’m actually liking I to the sl8 or the R5… which do you prefer between those 2? The s5 can’t climb, but it’s fast as fuckkkkkkk So I want a climbing fast home Thanks
@@lennytellez8589 I recently got the Sworks SL8 with SRAM Red (new version) and Roval CLX II Team wheels and it's my favorite by far. Faster times than the others, more comfortable and awesome on flats and climbs.
Pina f is beautiful…that color is possibly the worst currently on offer and the paint looks amazing in real life.. love The SL7 too.. although complete Dura Ace bike is £800 more than the Dogma.. cervelo cool but too ‘aero’ for me.. frankly any of us would be happy with any of them! It’s. Brand / style thing.. subjective and emotive.. great vid
Same here. Its just a lovely looking bike in that paint job. The pinarello is just straight up ugly. Looks like a child tried to design something edgy looking. SL7 looks nice as well.
Team Wanty, Cube Litening Aero C:68X! After being a Canyon fan for a decade I got a Cube (because Cube finally decided to do proper paint jobs). I wanted an Aeroad, but Canyon could not deliver. I am really amazed what the Cube can do, some say it is up there with the Aeroad, Pride 2, Aerfast 4, and I agree. Nice side affect, I have money left for a second high end bike 👍
Nice bike! have a 2017 cube litening c68 slt disc. Not very aero compared to today's aero bikes but it's very light weight. Would love to upgrade to the new cube litening air.
I will probably pick the Pinarello because it looks different. I will not pick the Specialized S-Works because it is too common of a bike. Plus the Specialized bikes value will do a nose dive after you take it out of the shop.
I think I'd go with something like Scott Foil or Merida Reacto. If I only had to go with one of 4 bikes featured in the video, then the choice would be Dogma. They are all aero frames that have higher stack than usual, so chances are you'll be more comfortable in the aero hoods position.
Out of those beautiful bikes, it would have to be the Pinarello, but from a world tour team choice, the Cannondale Lab71 and Willier SLR would be fighting it out for my attention. The Cannondale would probably just edge it!
Have 2 pinarello s tarmac and cervelo all different Pinarellos flow through corners stable .. tarmac good at most things cervelo best climbing bike.older models though.
S-works all the way..ive owned the dogma and its a different ride..the SL7 tarmac just seems more lively and responsive..the hate for the s-works sl7 comes because of the price tag..lol
Jamie owned one, it was not only the heaviest bike he’s ever owned despite a fortune spent on modifications and the maintenance on the rim brake version was horrendous, in fact many bike shops were turning them away and pro team mechanics rejoiced when they were replaced. They certainly were aero though!
Interesting comparison.. All 4 of these bikes are VERY focused, similar ..yet different The takeaway at the end of the video encapsulates the state of the bike industry.. All 4 bikes are PURE RACE bikes Very few consumers for these bikes could tolerate the huge compromises of lack of comfort , minimal performance gains , especially at the OUTRAGEOUS prices they command As stated too here , 99% of consumers riders can get the performance parameters that suit their needs with bikes that are half or a third of the cost...which is still...OUTRAGEOUS There is a very strong market demand in the 2nd hand market for lightly used , NOS road bikes that provide a SUPERB alternative.

i like how you said premium bikes and not the best bikes , because anyone who's been into cycling for a while can tell you that price and quality/value have very little to do with each other in cycling - particularly when it comes to 'premium' brands .
At the world tour level. It’s more about the rider not the bike. A better bike only matters on individual time trials. Where every tiny marginal gains counts.
Great video - thank you. As per 99% of cyclists, I'd love a new bike. However, how can you choose when it's almost impossible to test ride anything. Do people really spend north of £5k without actually riding one? Also, 54cm for you SL7 seems far too small when I look at their size chart - I'm guessing you're around 185cm?
There are some bike shops that now offer test rides and we can't recommend doing that enough! And Jamie is 183cm so yes the size chart would put him on a 56cm...he's pretending he's a pro...and to be fair the bike fitter last week didn't chuck him out!
Should start again with ride days now that rim brakes are stomped out, Would be terrible if the customer could compare disc vs rim side by side and choose for themselves, can’t have that happening.
Crazy you can get a custom Titanium frame made for that price that would ride better than, Those carbon bikes And The weight of the frame would be hardly negligible.
You can also 3D print titanium to any aero shape. If titanium 3D printing manufacturing technology improves further and lowers cost in the future. We might see it rival carbon fiber frames.
@@SrFedericowell to be credible it has to be proportional :) It's silly though, especially when you start talking to the OEM factories that make carbon frames in China.
greetings, why do they advertise only S-Works as a super light and fast bike for all trails from flat to uphill and downhill when we also have Pinarello, Colnago and Cervelo, Giant TCR Advanced Pro. and one more question, which of them is the most comfortable for long drives
For an average rider like me, spending 10.000 pounds or more for a bike is not very smart. I understand for some people that is not a lot of money, but for most of us it is. On the other hand, like every road bike rider, I too can see the appeal to ride a bike that win the stage or indeed the tour. I think it is partly to do with "identifying" ourselves with pro-riders. For me, I ride Specialized Tarmac as someone who likes climbing. I think it does fantastic job on that.
Absolutely the Pinarello, no doubt about it. But only if it has campagnolo. A dream bike for me
THE dentist answer
@ if i was a dentist, i could afford it haha, but i’m not. Just loving beautiful bikes
That pinarello with campag ❤❤❤
Pinarello Dogma F would be my choice.
Pinarello is like a ferrari of bike, looks so futuristic and manly and the Cervelo is like the most fancy one in look.
I pick both Cervelo and Pinarello
PINARELLO DOGMA F anyday... the most special of all of them. I have 3 of them.
U have 3? Only shit mate! Well if u ever want to give one away, I’ll take it!
dang
Never ridden the S5, but like the Colnago best of the others. Great ride - quite comfortable, but very lively.

I can get the same bike from the same factory without the name painted on it for 500 bucks. They are all made in CHINA at the same place! 😂😂
@@chrisscanlon3717 There‘s a reason why people like you don‘t get it. It‘s not on the bike, it‘s on the person. As simple as that!

Cheers! Means a lot, glad you enjoyed
The Colnago just looks so cool but I think the S5 is the best bike here but overall I whould go for the R5 as my favorite bike
Thanks, one of the honest reviews about superbikes!
it wasn't long ago that 28mm tyres were regarded as super wide, massive, gigantic and only used in winter rides. I ditched 25mm for 28mm back around 2017. The difference in comfort was easily noticable and being more comfortable especially on longer rides led to better performance too.
I did the same and managed to convince a few friends, however still encountered riders that thought 23mm were the way to go lol.
I only race on 26 :-) but all training is on 28 or even 42 gravel. Old budy vote for comfort
My next build has 32C. I've ridden 28 and 32 back to back: 32 all day every day :). I'm about 82kg though, so mileage may vary
Cervelo S5 would be my choice, however I'm intrigued in you doing a video for 99% performance, 50% price :) good video.🎉
Great video! But would love to see more videos of some other brands like Scott, Bianchi, giant and lapierre. Seen so many videos of sl7s and Pinarello now.
Don't forget Wilier and De Rosa. I rarely see cycling channels covering those brands
It all depends if the brands has the marketing budget to spend to get it featured.
@@dionisiuskusuma1462 yea very true

I am test riding the F7 next week. With the wheel and tire upgrade are you happy with you F7? Any concerns with the 50/34 chainset?
SL7 and Colnago❤
I don’t even ride road & thoroughly enjoyed this video. Well done!
Really good to see objective ride reviews and comparisons with actual criticisms.
The Tarmac for me. Since I already ride Specialized, I'd have to get all new kit which would increase the price of the others...LOL.
I would go for Pinarello.
The CERVELO S5 cockpit was not designed to cheat the wind it was a way the engineers came up with the solution of running mechanical cables and reducing the bends.
Its true😂 the host did not know what he is talking about
As someone who cannot afford these kind of bikes, it makes me appreciate the advancement of technologies in bicycles.
Great video. Sl7 for me. If my ego was talking then its the dogma. 😊

Great review. I have the S5 and S-Works SL7 and both are incredible. One not mentioned is the R5 that I have which is awesome as well.
I think the S5 and the S-Works are best of the 4 in this video.

CERVELO .. Because WOUT is the BEST
I just brought f pinarello nice bike Chinese love it
Aero and lightweight started with the Cervelo SLC-SL in 2006... That bike is still faster than most "all round" frames
I love the 'ordinary' look of the Colnago! That's why I ride the V3!
Same here. Its just a lovely looking bike in that paint job. The pinarello is just straight up ugly. Looks like a child tried to design something edgy looking. SL7 looks nice as well.
Dogma and Tarmac
Dogma F for me.
Pinarello Dogma ✅
Fantastic review!

Everyone runs S so to standout the Pinarello is the one to have!
S5 I just like the way cervelo look, plus I prefer to go fast mountain rides suck
I wouldn’t mind just having a little walk on part like “Stu” did!
Great Video, really enjoy this type of content. Keep up the good work!
Yes, you can run 32 tires on the Pinarello. I run 30’s on my Dogma.
I will probably pick the Pinarello because it looks different. I will not pick the Specialized S-Works because it is too common of a bike. Plus the Specialized bikes value will do a nose dive after you take it out of the shop.
On the looks department, I'd say Cervelo takes the cake. Muy guapa! I hope I win the lottery and but one someday. 😅
I am a S5 man all the way
I think I'd go with something like Scott Foil or Merida Reacto. If I only had to go with one of 4 bikes featured in the video, then the choice would be Dogma. They are all aero frames that have higher stack than usual, so chances are you'll be more comfortable in the aero hoods position.
im an S5 owner, but id loved to get the Sworks SI7 too... Where are Factor and Bianchi?
2023 France Biking Race Start tonight my time 🚴🎉❤😎! Many adorable bikes❤ on earth 🌍
You must add Scott foil rc ultimate to these groups of bikes, it ist bloody fast & secure! Scott forever!❤
8:47 1st place (3:12)
5:10 2nd place
2:25
I mean italian colnago style hell yes, but I'd go for the specialized because it's so real
I have the Pinarello Dogma F 2023 Midnight silver, Her name is
Moon Lyte. The best all around bike and I love her
I will take the BMC slr 01
Cannondale Lab 71?
Coming to road.cc soon!
Excellent video and highlighting the pro and cons of each bike. BTW which bike stand is that, under the Colnago? Thanks in advance
Pinarello for me as i have a 2019 Pinarello Prince.
Out of those beautiful bikes, it would have to be the Pinarello, but from a world tour team choice, the Cannondale Lab71 and Willier SLR would be fighting it out for my attention. The Cannondale would probably just edge it!
A very special Cannondale lab71 will be featuring very soon!
Which bike do you own. I think I'd go canyon aeroad cfr
Pinarello is the best of all bikes.. nothing can beat pinarello.
That’s not true. I’ve had a f12 and an F depends what you’re looking for. It’s a good all around bike it doesn’t do anything the best!
Ali express looking bike
The best bikes are only as good as the person riding it. There is no best bike.
What about the new Cannondale Supersix EVO LAB71?
Have 2 pinarello s tarmac and cervelo all different Pinarellos flow through corners stable .. tarmac good at most things cervelo best climbing bike.older models though.
I've been enjoying my FRM - came with a techno holistic fitting - perfect ride !
from my experienced:
flat road: dogma > v3rs (never test v4rs) > sl7
climb road: sl7 > v3rs > dogma
they all have their own advantgae
sir, which bike is best for mountain climbing?
@@irenkii think colnago c68 and swork aethos, cervelo r5
thank you very much , sir !
S-works all the way..ive owned the dogma and its a different ride..the SL7 tarmac just seems more lively and responsive..the hate for the s-works sl7 comes because of the price tag..lol
Kinda missing a few bikes, Super6 Lab71, Canyon Aeroad , etc
The Venge ViAS is a bike to forget??? Where did you get that from? It was an amazing bike. Super light and incredibly aerodynamic
Jamie owned one, it was not only the heaviest bike he’s ever owned despite a fortune spent on modifications and the maintenance on the rim brake version was horrendous, in fact many bike shops were turning them away and pro team mechanics rejoiced when they were replaced. They certainly were aero though!
BMC of course !!! 😊
DOGMA F12
what is your swork size ?
and what size are you?
Dogma F is the best looking bike for me
Grand advice
Interesting comparison..
All 4 of these bikes are VERY focused, similar ..yet different
The takeaway at the end of the video encapsulates the state of the bike industry..

Very few consumers for these bikes could tolerate the huge compromises of lack of comfort , minimal performance gains , especially at the OUTRAGEOUS prices they command
As stated too here , 99% of consumers riders can get the performance parameters that suit their needs with bikes that are half or a third of the cost...which is still...OUTRAGEOUS
There is a very strong market demand in the 2nd hand market for lightly used , NOS road bikes that provide a SUPERB alternative.
If you shop well as I have , one can find these bikes , components at a fraction of what they cost NEW as well as less then a mediocre NEW bike
I have purchased numerous NOS or lightly used HYPER bikes that were the best of their generation s
All of them provide SUPERB performance parameters, quality and most importantly..PURE rider satisfaction, feed back , that the majority of current GEN bikes are lacking
The costs are also substantially less too
Bottom line
EXCELLENT alternative
They all look alike to me. I guess best designs converge to the best design.

Why there is no Madone SLR9
I would take the fastest bike the Cervélo
2:29 nice chain line xDDD
Why do you think the venge vias is a bike to forget?
Would have been the S5 but I already have the 2021 model. I’m guessing there will be an SL8 at some point so I’ll wait for that.
