• Why does it cost £12.5k ?
    Hand made in Italy or China?
    I can’t afford it but am genuinely interested in why that retails @ £12.5k ...

  • You can get the frame set including bar/stem combo for under $100 here https://www.bicyclesdeals.com/pinarello-dogma-f-disc-2023-myway-borealis-frameset/ , £3k groupset and £2k wheels so guessing most of the cost is labour

  • Raw material is Torayca 1100 dream carbon from Japan
    Inital mould in Taiwan
    Hand finishing of paint, hardware, QC etc in Italy

    For reference I would rather a carbon specialist from China built me a frame.. look at the Aus track cycling team riding Bastion components.

    It’s a semi-bespoke frame designed for pros that wins big races like Roubaix or the tour. Add on premium kit all at RRP and that’ll get you to £12.5 quite easily.

    Might not be the place to sell this bike but it’s a good price non the less for the right buyer! :)
