Team Ineos Grenadiers is set to ride a special limited-edition Pinarello Dogma F on stage 14 of the 2025 Giro d’Italia.
The custom paintjob has been created to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the brand’s first Grand Tour stage and overall classification win, taken by Fausto Bertoglio at the 1975 Giro.
The Italian won for the Jollj Ceramica team aboard a Pinarello frameset on the stage 14 individual time trial that year, before triumphing overall.
He went on to hold off Spanish climber Francisco Galdós for the Maglia Rosa, battling to the top of the Stelvio Pass to cross the line 41 seconds ahead. A sign of the quality of the field, Felice Gimondi (+6:18) and Roger De Vlaeminck (+7:39) finished a distant third and fourth in the general classification.
Saturday’s stage was chosen to unveil the bike, given the flag is scheduled to drop outside Pinarello’s factory in Treviso after the usual ceremonial roll out.
Team Ineos will ride the blue-and-off-white framesets (‘Gloss Midnight Blue’ and ‘Borealis Luxter Venice’, according to Pinarello), the colours chosen to resemble Bertoglio’s original blue steel frameset.
In line with the team’s suppliers, the full build features a Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 R9200 drivetrain and custom-painted Princeton CarbonWorks Wake wheels to match the frameset.
Customers have a choice of buying a frameset or a complete bike from tomorrow (Saturday 24 May), but must place orders through a Pinarello dealer by Sunday 15 June.
Pinarello says this Edizione Speciale is the first of a run of limited-edition bikes, set to celebrate moments in the brand’s history. We’ll wait to see which moment it chooses next.
