Has the last bastion of rim brakes fallen in the pro peloton? Ineos Grenadiers will test the Pinarello Dogma F Disc tomorrow at the GP de Denain ahead of Paris-Roubaix. Here are the pictures of the bike and the team's justification.
News via push? More information »The Ineos Grenadiers team, set up for Grand Tour victories around Egan Bernal, Tom Pidcock, Richard Carapaz and Co., which has also had the time trial world champion in its ranks since yesterday, was the last major WorldTeam to consistently race bikes with rim brakes. Now, Ineos Grenadiers has announced a trial run of the Pinarello Dogma F Disc at Grand Prix Denain, calling it the "first race in the early stages of introducing disc brakes".
Carsten Jeppesen, Head of Technical Partners, said: "In close cooperation with Pinarello and Shimano we will further develop the all-round package of the disc brake by optimizing the weight, the integration into the Dura-Ace group and the quick release system. "
# With the Pinarello F Disc, Ineos Grenadiers will be testing the switch to disc brakes starting tomorrow.# The Dogma F is the Italians' aero all-round racing bike...# ...and comes up with correspondingly streamlined shapes.# The work machine was photographed by Kwiatkowski ,...# ...which is apparently still equipped with the braking technology of the Dura Ace R9100 series.Fausto Pinarello also commented: "I've been a fan of disc brakes since I've been riding them myself, and I'm happy that the team will race with them in the latter part of the season.”
The switch to disc takes place after the disc brakes on the new Shimano Dura Ace 12-speed group have been heavily revised. A larger pad spacing, rotors from the XTR MTB group and Servo-Wave brake actuation eliminate grinding noises, for example.

So I also have to deal with squeaking on road bike disc brakes, but no problems on MTBs. Pads are identical on both bikes, the rest is not. For the rainy days I already have discs from two manufacturers for the street racer, let's see what it brings.....Lorebo,Ghostina

Recommend the Dächle Ultra Light discs. The Dächle discs with TrickStuff coverings run just as well on Gravel and Renner as on MTB with the Direttisima.Ghostina,Ghostina

Logically, on the MTB not with the UL but with the HD discs#there are always specifics that take everything too seriouslyGhostina,Schwarzwaldyeti

Stupidly, Trickstuff only builds 6-hole discs, nothing centerlock. And I don't feel like messing around with adapters.Schwarzwaldyeti,We invite you to read every article in our Forum to comment and discuss. Take a look at the previous discussion or just comment in the form below:
