Pinarello Grevil F

Meet the Grevil, Pinarello’s answer to gravel, a platform that debuted in 2019 and which I really rather liked (see issue 104).

For 2022 the Grevil gains an ‘F’, and most obviously adds full internal cabling, which runs inside the Most bars and stem (Most is Pinarello’s component arm) and into the frame via huge 1.5-inch headset bearings. Less obvious is that that frame is made of T700 fibres from Japanese carbon specialist Toray, not the stiffer, more expensive T1100 of its predecessor, the Grevil+. It’s the same fibres that the non-plussed Grevil used in 2019, and which helped it shed £2,500.
