Pinarello has now been converted back into gears, but has also been adapted more extensively to allow riding longer distances on gravel and in mixed weather:
Cranks are still DA7700s, now with 53/39 SRAM chainrings, shifted by Ultegra front der. (for now). Rear wheel is a NOS Mavic GP-4 CD rim laced to a WI Aft-tracker hub with ultegra 9sp cassette (hill-friendly 11-21 gearing) shifted by DA7700 rear der., made to match front WI ti-hub to CX18 CD rim. DT shifters are also 7700, handlebars have been lifted a little with a Nitto Tech.Delux stem. Other notable additions: Nitto M18 front rack with DIY Lowepro (made in Ireland)(camera-) front bag, Zefal HPX frame pump, Zefal fenders for shitty weather (which are surprisingly good), big fat TUFO tub up front and slightly less fat (and controversially green) Vittoria Pave CG tub at the rear.
