Pinarello Bolide TT - Professional Time Trial Bicycle Frame
Handlebar 2A-100 (Flat)
Extensions 285
The Pinarello Bolide TT is a legendary time trial bicycle, initially designed in 2013 exclusively for Team Sky, and became famous in 2015 thanks to Sir Bradley Wiggins, who broke the hour record with the Bolide HR. In 2016, Pinarello launched the Bolide TT, which dominated time trial races in grand tours, national and world road championships, and achieved extraordinary results on the track as well, winning numerous medals in both team and individual pursuit at the World Championships and the Olympics.
Main Features of the Bolide TT Model
AirStream Technology
The Pinarello Bolide TT incorporates the innovative AirStream technology, developed in collaboration with the University of Adelaide and the aerodynamic research partner NablaFlow. Inspired by the structure of humpback whale fins, this technology includes the adoption of a unique AeroNode model on the seat tube and seat post. This element reduces the complex vortices generated by leg movements during pedaling, improving airflow and increasing aerodynamic efficiency.
Optimized AirFoil Sections
The AirFoil sections, located on the bottom bracket and the wheel hubs, have been designed to be longer and thinner, thus reducing the frontal area. This design fully exploits the removal of the UCI 3:1 rule, which has allowed for testing and achieving significant improvements in aerodynamic performance, reaching aspect ratios of 6:1, and even 8:1, which have proven to be significantly superior to the original 3:1 benchmark.
Reinforced Horizontal Sheath and Central Movement
To increase stiffness and responsiveness without compromising the ability to accommodate wider wheels, the horizontal tube and bottom bracket have been reinforced, allowing for the use of wheels up to 32 mm wide, an increase from the previous 28 mm. This ensures greater stability and improved riding comfort, without sacrificing speed performance.
