Bolide F TT / Bolide TR
Izcelsme
Bolide ir Pinarello laika brauciena un triatlona platforma, ar trim atšķirīgiem variantiem, kas dala šo nosaukumu. Bolide F TT ir UCI atbilstošs šosejas laika brauciena velosipēds, pārveidots Parīzei 2024 ar 'AirStream' tehnoloģiju — AeroNode rakstu uz sēdekļa caurules un sēdekļa staba, izstrādāts sadarbībā ar Adelaides Universitāti — apgalvojot par 2,28% CdA samazinājumu salīdzinājumā ar iepriekšējo Bolide F. Riepu klīrenss palielinājās no 28 līdz 32 mm. Bolide TR un TR+ ir ne-UCI triatlona varianti — tā pati estētiskā valoda, bet garāka galvas caurule (+35 mm), zemāks apakšējais kronšteins (-8 mm), 78° sēdekļa caurules leņķis un integrētas bento/glabāšanas kastes Ironman lietošanai. Atsevišķs 3D drukāts titāna HR variants pastāv stundas rekordam un treka iedzīšanai, ieskaitot rāmi, ar kuru Filippo Ganna brauca savā UCI stundas rekordā. Cenas atspoguļo nišu — rāmju komplekti sākas ap $15,000 USD par F TT, ar pilnīgiem TR+ Dura-Ace komplektiem ap €11,000.
Specifikācijas
- Rāmis
- Bolide F TT: TorayCa T1100G 1K Nanoalloy carbon (TiCR internal cable routing, Italian threaded BB). Triathlon Bolide TR+ uses T1100G UD with Nanoalloy; Bolide TR uses lower-grade T700 UD (heavier, less stiff). HR variant is fully 3D-printed titanium.
- Svars
- kg
- Transmisija
- Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 R9270 (TT-specific bar-end shifters or remotes), Shimano Ultegra Di2 R8170 on lower TR trims
- Bremzes
- Disc brakes (flat-mount hydraulic). Frameset builds with Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 or SRAM Red eTap AXS. Earlier Bolide TT rim-brake framesets also existed.
- Riteņi
- Sold as frameset — wheels rider's choice (deep-section TT/disc wheelsets). Bolide TR+ designed for max 30 mm rim width.
Verdikts
- Genuine race pedigree — the Bolide platform carries multiple UCI Hour Records (Wiggins, Ganna) and Olympic/World TT wins, with aero refined over 2,000+ CFD simulations.
- Bolide F TT's AirStream tech (AeroNodes on seat tube/post, co-developed with University of Adelaide) delivers a measured 2.28% CdA reduction over the prior model.
- Disc-brake F TT frameset is light for an aero TT frame (~2.27 kg incl. fork/seatpost/brakes), helping keep UCI-legal builds near the 6.8 kg limit.
- Bolide TR+ triathlon geometry (taller head tube, lower BB, 78° seat angle) genuinely improves long-course comfort and stability for Ironman age-groupers, with integrated storage that also smooths airflow.
- Increased 32 mm tyre clearance (F TT) modernises the platform for wider, faster-rolling tyres.
- Extreme price — F TT frameset around $14,500-$15,800; complete builds €11,000+. Custom 3D-printed titanium MOST aerobar can run ~$34,000.
- Frameset-only sale means buyers must source wheels, groupset and finishing kit separately, pushing total cost far higher.
- Hyper-specialised single-discipline bike: no versatility — pointless for anyone racing TT/tri only a handful of times a year vs a clip-on aerobar on a road bike.
- TR (non-plus) uses lower-grade T700 carbon, so it is noticeably heavier and less stiff than the flagship TR+.
- Reviewers/forums note the conservative, surprise-free design and clumsy electronic control-box integration (e.g. SRAM AXS box placement); armrest pads look agricultural.
