Onda FPX Carbon 46HM3K – 1″ 1/8 conified 1″ 1/4 integral system. The 2008 Prince Carbon is identical in every last detail to the 2009 edition. The paint schemes are different, but other than that detail, they are equals in every last way. Every way, that is, except price. Just like’09, the’08 version is built from carbon fiber sourced strictly from Japanese textile giant Toray, a supplier to virtually every aerospace company worldwide. Pinarello raves how Toray’s quality control and testing protocols are as intensive as you’ll find anywhere in the composites industry. Pinarello chooses 50HM1K carbon for the Prince Carbon — a high-modulus carbon that has a tensile strength of 50 tons per square cm (50HM), and an exterior weave of 1000 weaves per crossing (1K). This allows Pinarello to use substantially less material while still maintaining optimum strength and rigidity. Sprint in a 53×12 or launch an out-of-the-saddle attack on a climb and the last thing you’ll feel will be frame flex. Higher quality carbon also allowed Pinarello to build their lightest-ever frameset: The unpainted weight of a Prince Carbon is sub-900g. And as you’d expect from such high-end carbon, the Prince Carbon has remarkable smoothness at high speed. Pinarello explains that in their development of the Prince Carbon they gained a new level of insight on how tension and compression forces affect a bike under power. Beyond fiber orientation alone, Pinarello structurally ribs the walls (not unlike what you originally saw in the Paris Carbon) to further enhance performance and ride quality. Pinarello used extensive computer modeling to ensure that the ribbing properly follows areas of compression in the head tube, fork, seat stays, plus portions of the seat tube and the BB. Unlike any previous Pinarello, you’ll feel stability, resistance to flex, and an absorption of road shock. The Prince Carbon is built with an Onda FPX fork. Unlike the standard Onda fork, Pinarello built a second “wave” into the “S” shape of the FPX. This redesigned shaping serves to further reduce vibrations and increase comfort on any road surface. In addition, the FPX is also completely built from 50HM1K carbon to reduce weight. The Prince Carbon also comes with a Pinarello integrated headset and a Pinarello carbon fiber seatpost. It requires the use of a 35.0mm front derailleur and an Italian BB. BICYCLE BLUE BOOK REVIEW. Frame Tubing Material: Pinarello 50HM1K, monocoque high-modulus carbon. The combination of decades of framebuilding experience, modern engineering and the brilliant mind of Fausto Pinarello has yielded the untouchable Prince. This Italian masterpiece boasts one of the most technologically advanced monocoque carbon constructions to yield a frame that is both feathery light and out-of-this world stiff for impeccable climbing, brutal accelerations and top-notch efficiency. Pinarello also includes their own Onda FPX full-carbon fork as only it could possibly match the frame’s thoroughbred racing pedigree. To ensure that the Prince rides as beautifully on the road as it does on paper, Pinarello has graced it with their dialed geometry that has been refined through generations of world-class cyclists and countless race victories. Campagnolo Super Record 11 Speed review. ABOUT ME AND BIKES. Ive had a love for the best racing bikes in the world for over 35 years Ive raced and collected some of the finest ever made and feel I can comment on bikes with some authority because of the miles if ridden on such a wide variety of cyclings finest machines. Ive had a few wall hangers and a few Ive run hard including my Cervello and my old Kestrel. Among my many Bikes are five Eddy Merckx Bikes from the 80s , several vintage Legnanos, Colnago Master Light, Kestrel 200SCi, a Cervello Soloist and several Fuji track bikes. I have three wall hangers trophy bikes if you will. And this PINARELLO PRINCE is one. The other two are a Legnano Tipo Roma in mint condition from about 1955, an early Merckx Team Bike and this magnificent Pinarello Prince. Simply put, this bike will place you in a position to compete at any level for a fraction of a current build. The bike is a genuine Pinarello which I’ve owned for 8 years (among over a Dozen + other Racing Bikes) and it will be. There is no better Racing Bike around for this value! Please take a good look at the photos these are the actual items. I travel for business and can reply at the end of the day if you have any questions. This Pinarello Prince only has a few hundred miles on it – most of its life it was a display bike for a bike shop. The bike is gorgeous – perfectly clean as the photos indicate.
