What do you think of Ollie's new bike?
Dull colour, Ollie could get a red pinarello instead of a matt black colour
Just black? What about that pink one?
Black? Seriously like every other bike out there. After showing all the bright custom colors this is a let down. How about gcn color scheme?
I like that you can't see the giant advertising logos, I'd feel safer on it and less of a target for robbers.
It’s an interesting choice for Ollie and has to be some discount/partnership things at play or he had to pay out of pocket.
I do like the bike and Pinerellos in general. To me, an Ultegra Di2 bike is usually the sweet spot. I’m glad they came out with the endurance version with the same tube profiles for us less flexible riders.
The disappointment in Ollie’s face when he saw the paint job of his bike. 🤣
Also that was the most awkward interaction I’ve seen in a while.
Yes…he did not know what to say to Pinarello. Acting like Pinarello was a girl outside his league 😂😂
I like that black bike quite a bit, but it felt a bit strange after seeing all these colors, and the interaction with Fausto Pinarello was a bit awkward, but who knows why...
@@taxi9554 lmao
He did go out of his way to talk up all the custom paint jobs...then he gets his bike....and BOOM...flat black....but since they are a GCN sponsor and it is free....why complain......
To make matters worse it's an F7 and not a Dogma 😂
Dear editors, please please please go -6db on music tracks. My ears get blown out every time someone isn’t talking 🙏
I lived in Treviso for over 25 years. I went to pick up my first Pinarello in 1984 and saw it had a 52-42 on the front and a 13-23 cassette. I mentioned to Fausto's father, "Nani" Pinarello, that I wanted to ride the Stelvio pass and that the gearing looked a bit challenging. Nani took one look at me and said "Ok, we'll dig out a 26 tooth rear cog, you'll be able to climb a vertical wall with that". How times have changed.
Hahaha that's awesome. Road cyclists aren't known to embrace change :)
Indeed, bike those days built with quality frames and component. I always said to the newbies, If your bike are good, you dont need a 34 cassette to climb a 8% gradient hills. Now we have 34 so that it covered up the bad built of the frame and sell you a very high price.
Hahahah times really changed, spinning is winning now 😵💫 Would you run a 26 cassette now?
@@gcntech YES of course, On a good frames!!! Not todays Disc frame though.
@@gcntech It wasn't even a cassette in 1984 but a six-speed screw-on freewheel. I did keep the 26 tooth cog but, unknown to Nani, paired it with a French Stronglight 49D chainset with 42-26 rings. I still couldn't ride up walls but did get to the top of the Stelvio. The steel Montello SLX frameset was a banger, by the way. I met a guy riding one just the other day. I still have a Pinarello Gavia, the same model Chioccioli won the Giro on. A 35 year old Gavia but still a Pinarello.
Ollie is exited like a kid in a candy shop. This video really show how passionate is Pinarello, it is an iconic brand!
He's in his happy place here 🙌 Great bikes and great people 😎
Great little bike painting business Fausto's got there.
lol
😂😂😂
I used to love Pinarello when they were properly special - now it’s just Pinarello paint
The lady seeing the camera and turning around at 14:20 is absolute gold 😂
I think it was kate middleton, but like all the other sightings it's hard to tell.
I suspect she was somewhere she ought not to have been😮
@@dannyholder1359when most of us do that, we look even harder
An ex of Ollie's. He left her because she wouldn't wax her chain.
Ollie has that effect😉
That off black color is called "Primer".
You're a legend Ollie ! A video of him nerding out on bikes is always a good watch
He really is in his happy place 🤣
Except when receiving the bike boring 😅
Hank goes on a date in his GCN kit. Ollie sleeps in his GCN shirt. Talk about dedication to your job. 🙃🙃
Live and breathe GCN ♥️♥️♥️
Chinarello. Assembled and painted in Italy.
Tis true while Fausto's dad made bikes his son was always a painter. This is what Pinarello is today Asian bike with Italian Paint & assembly
we are not in the 50s anymore old guy
Ollie’s bike not even painted in Italy
@@maniastrat So if they made the frames in Italy at three times the price would you still buy them??? No, I thought so
I can't believe you didn't get a GCN painted theme bike out of this. I was selfishly hoping you got a tricked out F series too since you're sponsored, but at the least, I wanted to see a GCN theme/logo bike. I mean they sponsor you, it's marketing, let's see it!
All this talk about crazy painting, just to get a black/black bike, Ollie 🙃
Ollie, I got to say I'm rather envious. What a trip and what a bike!
Did Ollie choose flat primer black on purpose? It almost seems like he wasn't expecting it upon the fairly awkward presentation and was fighting off showing disappointment. I know I'd be bummed out in that situation after seeing all the beautiful, colorful designs they have.
Not very often you see Ollie star struck but he was 100% treading water meeting Fausto! 😊 Lovely to see. I would've been exactly the same! I really like these factory tours. They're very interesting and insightful, I would've liked to hear more about their "Most" in-house components brand, maybe another time. The Pinarello story on GCN+ (GCN+😢😢😢) Was great! Brill film as ever. 👍
Ollie got a big star struck for sure, he was in bike nerd heaven 🤣 We miss GCN+ too, great to hear the film has stuck with you!
Trip of a lifetime! Got my first Pinarello in 1990, on my 4th! Beautiful bike Ollie!
Awesome! What a first bike to own 🤯 Have you ever been to the factory?
@@gcntech on my bucket list, someday!
I love that Ollie seems to be embracing the full range of bikes. He has top tier, the Boardman, and now an F7. I love the stealth paint job, makes it easier to catch up with and drop people, right? I’d love to see it in person in the sun. Can’t wait to see what he does on it!
He's building a collection!
Beautiful bike and well deserved Ollie! I got a new bike day and tomorrow is the first day she gets to ride the roads of South Yorkshire! The winter bike has had her service and clean before being retired to the Friday commute.
Great to see Ollie looking so happy and in awe. Excellent video, so many REALLY beautiful frames all over, great to see behind the curtain a little. Just the right amount of nerdy to keep it interesting and informative whilst taking in all that eye candy, so much eye candy.. oh boy.. I could spend hours in there. Congrats on your new bike Ollie! I hope you enjoy many safe and happy miles together.
We really had to prise Ollie out of there. Thankfully the idea of riding his new bikes got him out 🚴
What can I say Ollie, I was lucky enough to get an F7 with the same paint earlier in the year and through I've only had the opportunity to ride it a couple of times I'm loving it. I can't put my finger on exactly what it is but it just feels absolutely great to ride and effortlessly quick.
“The frames arrive……from Xiamen”
Love the TVR comment! Performance bikes love performance cars ❤
I missed by my Pinarello. But in future I will definitely return back to this brand! Congrats with new amazing bike!
Wow, this is one of the best shows I have seen from GCN! Excellent work.
I have a Dogma F12 with a SRAM Redd 12 speed e shifter. Brilliant bike!
Thank you GCN.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Hey, thanks for the comment. Glad you enjoyed it!
Love Pinarello! Thanks for sharing. Maybe one day I’ll own one, but today I will enjoy the brand vicariously.
Congratulations on your new bike Ollie, what a nice choice, it’s super nice!
Super nice for sure 🔥
Beautiful ride. Congrats!
The first jersey that Ollie mentions was won by Pedro Delgado. The most important is the black jersey on the bottom right. Had Pinarello not ‘won’ that, legend has it, Pinarello wouldn’t have been born.
Love this bike Ollie! So beautiful. One day, I, too, hope to own a Pinarello. I do love my TCR, but there’s something so iconic and special about Pinarello
The TCR is a great bike too but there is just something so special about a Pinarello 👌 Do you know which model you would like?
From the final comment, I guess Ollie’s riding this in tomorrow’s TT. Given I’m off a couple of mins before him, I should have a chance to check out that bike in the flesh.
Did you spot him 👀
@@gcntech Spot him? I saw him in slow motion when he was supposedly "racing"🤣(Sorry Ollie!!!!)
I've missed this kind of content. Ollie, you are my kind of bike nerd.
Hahaha the bike nerd of the people? 👀
Amazing ! Thankyou for sharing. And I like the colour you have chosen. Anything you wear will go well with black ! Totally enjoyed your video and its content. Again, thankyou. 😊 greetings from Melbourne. Australia.
Just got back from my morn ride - on my Merida Scultura rim 400. All bicycles are beautiful. 😊
It's a great looking bike isn't it 🔥 Thanks for tuning in, we can't agree with you more! All bikes are beautiful
Congrats!!!!!!! Expecting a vid very soon!
had my new bike day last tuesday! congrats ollie!
Seeing Ollie so stoked made my morning, what an experience this must have been! Get that guy a handkerchief for his drooling.
Hahahaha we had to clean up after him 🤣
I am extremely happy for the joy of my great idol! Like from Brasil.
Black looks really good, very stealthy. Great color choice 👌
Great vid and an even better bike that’s well earned too given what Ollie gets up to, nice one Ollie. 👍🏼👍🏼
Congrats, Ollie! It’s gorgeous.
Hahaha you make it sound like a baby 🤣 We're sure Ollie will treat it like one
Congratulations!!! Have fun riding the beast.
Love love love this enthusiasm!!! ❤
Ollie's happy place 🤣
So much enthusiasm. There you can see the Pinarello-Fan-Boy. 👍
As a mountain biker. I'd say my favorite custom paint job. Is on my 22MY Orbea Rallon. Which was a former GMBN presenter bike. Riden by Blake Sanson. Blake was excited to see it in the Bike Vault yesterday and gave it a Super Nice.
That's awesome! We hope you're riding it as hard as Blake rides his 👌
That matt black looks gorgeous, love it
Love to see more of these type of videos in other manufacturers very interesting
that must have been such a good day, ollie! congrats on the new bike, i like the understated look. as for the custom painted frames - as much as i don't care for purple, there was a deep purple/blue color that looked like trek's "purple flip" colorway they used to do (i have an émonda alr in that colorway, it's stunning in person). i'm generally a fan of a single color on the entire frame.
Single colour frames have a real classy feel to them! Maybe Ollie will get a purple one next time 👀
That green/gold Philipo Ganna bike in the factory is the colour of our Australian Christmas Beetle. In hot weather we get swarms of iridescent green/gold beetles, lots of different varieties but all with green/gold shells. They look beautiful. A bike to match would be very nice. Do an image search and check them out.
Some really special bikes here 👌 Would you ride a Pinarello?
Great great video 👍
I've had a Pinarello since 2009 and it's been a great bike although now it's mostly been sitting on the trainer. I do have to admit though I'm more of a Colnago guy and will likely get a Bianchi next if I feel the need to replace or get another road bike.
Congrats on your new Pinarello
This is relateable content
Beautiful bike❤
What a huge painting studio.
The "Sword" is the coolest name I've never heard given to a bike. Also that red-to-black fade paint is also so good.
It's got to be a fast bike if it's called the sword 🗡
I like geometry on Specialized Tarmac SL7-8. This is top.
Ollie's bike colour way.
Understated elegance. The matte black withgloss points.
Ollie. You do you.
Cheers 🌞🚴♀️🖖
Understated elegance... that's Ollie 🤣
Love my Pinarello
Matte black is just the best, the best colour ever
TVR Chimaera reference.... yum!
I want a Pinarello too..... Oh wait, I have a Prince in the basement. - Black and Red! Best paint job ever; because it's mine 😄
Wow! All within the allotted time!
Like a kid in a sweet shop 😀 enjoy....🎉
The older I get the more I like colours from my past. I would love if I could get my bike painted camouflage like the Phantoms I used to phix.
It's the nostalgia kicking in 🤣 Do you think bikes were better looking back then?
@@gcntech I'm 68 yrs old all I am is nostalgia and I think bikes look better today.
The all-new Pinarello Anticlimactic 😂
Wow the factory has changed a LOT since I got my Pegoretti built Pinarello in the early 90s. Fun fact: Pinarello never used to clear coat their decals... in fact Pinarellos were notoriously known for peeling decals back in the steel days.
12 minutes of snazzy paint jobs. Gets the most boring looking matte black bike.
The “interesting” paint jobs are almost impossible to order - try for yourself with any Pinarello dealer - I have been trying and nothing remotely interesting is available, not even possible to join a waitlist. Very, very frustrating.
Hurry up and wait. Hahaha
He said something wallet friendly .... So it is black.
When I was racing the pinarello to have was team red. Black... so boring
In the motorcycle world, just about every single brand has a blacked-out model.
Absolutely love the all black look of that bike
Classic isn't it 🙌
Beautiful bike and great to see GCN going for the more "affordable" F7 with Ultegra. It would have been perfect, if you had opted for the Italian bike with the Italian group set. ;o)
Some would say that jersey wall is pretty dope!
All those gorgeous colors and amazing paint jobs and you get all black? 😮
I would love to see more about the designing of the bikes and the production process in China- who makes their frames, what’s special about that compared to other less premium brands, what is their QC like. Specialized are rumored to be very much on top of that. Other brands less so.
That would be super cool! We know the team behind Pinarello love their bikes and take every details very seriously
I should try the museum sometime, maybe it would get me over my hatred of Pinerellos 😂
very nice ollie!
Hi Ollie, wish you had come to see my TT bike while you were in AZ. I might have let you ride it in that race in Tucson
Congrats on the new bike! Please do a review of the F7. Have thought about getting one for winter/trainer if it’s same geometry as the Dogma F (the summer bike). Would be great to spend a lot less to have essentially the same setup.
Do you really think gcn will do a bad or impartial review of a sponsored bike?!
@@frankchan5547 I am very cynical or at least skeptical by nature, however I don’t expect them to point out any glaring flaws (but I don’t expect there to be any besides maybe price or “value”). Everyone hates on GCN like every publisher under the sun doesn’t skew positively especially for sponsors. As someone who ran a publishing company, I can tell you with confidence the only people who have a chance at anything approaching objectivity are people who buy everything themselves and get zero dollars for advertising or sponsorship, and in any category, those are very few.
Wow, amazing bikes ! Thanks for awesome content.
Black tho? I thought 💭 it would be pink…. 😂
Pink, why's that?
After all those beautiful paint jobs, you walked out with a black on black bike? Bloody Nora mate
Sponsorship deal & they give you a bike you can’t read the logos on?
You don't need to see the logo to spot a Pinarello 👌 Absolute classics
Couldn’t tell which model it is tho
😂 @@pantster9855
Not when you don’t know what you’re looking at.
Is there a 38cm MOST Talon Ultra Light bar? All I could find is 42cm (40cm center-to-center) from Pinarello's online catalogue
The bike, I.M.H. opinion, look just spectacular, like a stealth bike...
Utterly delicious video. Nuff said.
Tasty stuff right! 👌
@@gcntech Absobloominlootely ;)
I got to live my dream through Ollie today! Can y'all all at GCN do video tours of Pinarello? I could do a tour of Pinarello once a week? More Pinarello please? Could y'all do a vid on Pinarello's XC bike?
It would be interesting to see the factory where Pinarello frames are made
*Spend an hour talking about the magnificent paintings of Dogma
*Gets an all-black F7
Hold on, hold on.. So where are Pinarello bikes made??
China, but they make it mythical, they call it Far East.
A lot of manufacturers outsource the production to China/Taiwan/Vietnam, so I'd guess somewhere around there
Taiwan
They used to be made in Taichung in the Giant factory like 10 years ago. I think they make most of them in mainland China now and ship it to Taiwan, but I'm not sure.
Taiwan, where the world’s leading carbon fibre bike technologists are based. Is there a problem with that or are you just subconsciously racist?
Today is my new bike day too 🎉🎉🎉
Whoop whoop! What did you go for? 🚲
@@gcntech TREK Emondá ALR 5
Behind my house, saluti da treviso !
It would be interesting to see a factory tour of the producer of the frames.. And to see or learn for how many companies they are producing frames... BTW I heard rumors that Pinarello and Specialized are made in the same factory just not in the same building... Is that true?
I agree. He should have had the decency and courage to mention the country of manufacture. It is no longer a negative reflection if the frames are made in China or Taiwan. it is a matter of principle to uphold truth and transparency.
Wicked machine. Enjoy
Pretty special looking bike right!
A wonderful look behind the scenes. Is it possible to go to the Bianchi complex in the future?
nice bike
After seeing all those sweet paint jobs at the factory, I couldn’t believe Ollie’s bike looked like something Darth Vader would have ordered. May the force (or Ultegra Di2) be with you
Darth Vader's bike sounds exactly like something Ollie would want to ride 🤣
Queue Ollie making lightsaber sounds as he rides.
No, it won't make you go faster.
I love a stealth bike. Would have probably been my pick anyway. Im more concerned that it 2 sizes too big. Ahhh, those pinarello sizings 😅
What a lucky lad
Oh man, with summer coming up I was really hoping Ollie got that water bike he trialed a few years ago.
Hahaha, now that was funny
Painterello HQ.
So, Pinarello is a painting company now?
and assembly ! 😅
then Apple is what?
@@lucasherculano5563 Apple is a computer, smart device operating system, and hardware designing company and does not paint anything or assemble anything from parts.
Where they wrap the carbon frame?
Awkward fist bump got me 😂
GOO OOLIE GOO !
