2024 Pinarello Dogma XC Drops 2 Carbon Specs for Full-Suspension & Exhausting Tail MTBs

Pinarello are again within the MTB scene with the official rollout of two all-new XC race bikes. Certain, It’s true that everyone knows the enduring Italian bike maker for highway bikes, however they’ve additionally had a mountain bike line on and off in current a long time. However these Dogma XC bikes are nothing just like the informal Pinarello mountain bikes of years previous.

Two all-new off-road race bikes developed carefully with Tom Pidcock and Pauline Ferrand-Prévot. Two all-new bikes which have every already been ridden to World Championship titles. All much less that 10 months after the entire Pinarello Dogma XC mountain bike growth undertaking started.

All-new full-suspension Dogma XC

The primary one we laid eyes on was Pidcock’s full-suspension bike. Raced and gained in its first World Cup outing in Nové Město, Czechia final Might. He adopted that up three months later with an XCO World Championship win on the identical bike.

That bike is now made official because the Pinarello Dogma XC.

All-new hardtail Dogma XC Exhausting Tail, too!

The subsequent one we noticed was Ferrand-Prévot’s hardtail which turned up in Peebles, Scotland in August. And she or he proceeds to win two UCI World Championship titles within the bike’s first race outing – each Elite Ladies’s XCC & XCO.

That second bike is now made official because the Pinarello Dogma XC Exhausting Tail.

Ten months begin to end. Pinarello turned a spark of an concept into 2 World Championship-winning bikes in a single season.

(Extra on that story with my First Rides Overview!)

OK, again to the bikes you should purchase!

Each new bikes can be found beginning right now for buy by means of your native Pinarello supplier. The INEOS crew has a growth partnership with SR Suntour, in order that’s what the crew is racing. However that suspension isn’t prepared but for customers, so you will get glorious new FOX suspension within the meantime. Additionally they race on Shimano. However since there isn’t but a brand new XTR Di2 group, Pinarello figured they might spec these industrial bikes with the most recent SRAM AXS T-Kind Transmissions. Fortunately (in my private opinion and the minds of Pinarello), the bikes get spec’d with the best-performing Shimano brakes as a substitute.

2024 Pinarello Dogma XC & XC full-suspension bikes

In brief, the Pinarello Dogma XC is the full-suspension possibility, with 90mm of single-pivot rear journey paired to a 100mm fork.

But it surely contains a movable machined aluminum entrance shock mount that permits you to optionally swap in an extended stroke shock paired to an extended for to get 100mm out again and 120mm up font with the very same geometry.

Tech particulars

Kinematics-wise, you get a roughly 100% anti-squat with a flat curve and a leverage ratio round 2:1 for a “easy but progressive” suspension setup. The linkage-driven flex-stay single pivot rotates on bearings on the important pivot and bushings in every single place else.

Key options of the full-suspension bike embrace the additional triangle above the underside bracket to dramatically increase drivetrain stiffness, and stiffness on the body’s important pivot. It additionally follows Pinarello’s idea of uneven design to deal with the uneven forces exerted on a motorbike evaluating driveside vs. braking forces.

Much less apparent, however the rear finish of the Dogma XC consists of two fully separate triangles. Not chainstay or seatstay bridges to attach them. However… hidden contained in the outsized important pivot, the edges are joined with a Hirth joint. An outsized aluminum half axle is molded into each halves of the rear triangle, and a toothed interface connects them again within the center to stiffen the 2 sides into one. The result’s stiffness such as you had a chainstay bridge, however with the flexibility to have ultra-short 427.5mm chainstays with 2.4″ tire clearance, and no mud shelf!

Built-in cockpits

Pinarello additionally offers each bikes a brand new one-piece built-in carbon MOST XC MTB cockpits to avoid wasting weight and increase steering stiffness. With absolutely inner cable routing by means of the headset and an inner 60° steering cease.

It’s an enormous handlebar to have a look at. And we’ll depart it as much as the feedback part to debate inner cable routing on a mountain bike. However a pleasing shock at the least to me, Pinarello did a stable job of creating it stiff in the correct instructions, with out it rattling your tooth (or wrists) when using uneven trails!

2024 Pinarello Dogma XC Exhausting Tail & XC Exhausting Tail hardtails

The Exhausting Tail is a a lot easier design, however will probably make extra folks scratch their heads.

It additionally will get the identical distinctive backside bracket and decrease entrance triangle design to enhance stiffness. But it surely takes the asymmetry design idea to new extremes. With dramatically completely different chainstay and seatstay layouts for the hardtail. Pinarello say this asymmetry addresses the forces in a body in a extra balanced method, main to higher vitality switch, improved traction, and elevated velocity.

Just like the absolutely, it will get an built-in cockpit. And in addition is available in 4 inventory sizes (S-XL). What it doesn’t embrace is a dropper put up. All the bikes are dropper suitable, however the light-weight dropper that Pinarello needed to spec on the bike wasn’t out there in manufacturing portions. (We expect that was this world’s lightest Vertical Helium dropper.) So that they gave the hardtails a inflexible dropper, and left it as much as the customer to swap one in if they need.

First Rides on the Pinarello Dogma XC

Phrase from Pinarello is that till final week, solely two folks had really ridden these new Dogma XC bikes. Tom Pidcock and Pauline Ferrand-Prévot. Nicely, that was till I joined Pinarello’s growth crew and INEOS MTB Coach Kurt Bogaerts for the primary check rides on the brand new bikes in Italy. Along with about ten different journalists. I received in a few quick rides over various terrain on the top-spec full-suspension Pinarello Dogma XC. In its inventory quick 90/100mm journey setting. And I’ve to say… the bike pleasantly stunned me, at how a brand new XC bike from a highway bike model can really feel so fast whenever you put the ability down, but nonetheless really feel plush in such quick journey with out ever bottoming out.
