Pinarello Dogma F8 Wiggo tribute 1Pinarello launch Dogma F8 Wiggo tribute
Pinarello has created a Dogma F8 frame in a limited edition finish to celebrate the career of Bradley Wiggins. The Team Sky rider will race on it for the first time in this week’s Tour of Qatar.
As you can see, the frame features a pic of Wiggins’ face on the top tube along with a Union Jack to mark his reign as British time trial champion. There are World Champion rainbow stripes too because Wiggo is the current time trial world champion.
All the gold features symbolise the fact that Wiggins is the Olympic time trial champion as well.
Further details highlight his 2012 Tour de France win and additional world and Olympic track titles.
Wiggins will ride the bike competitively for the first time on stage three of the Tour of Qatar on Tuesday 10 February. It’s a 10.9km time trial stage around the Losail International Race Circuit but racers are riding road frames rather than time trial bikes, hence Wiggins’ use of the Dogma F8.
The Dogma F8 Wiggo tribute will be available to buy in a limited edition, but we don’t yet have a price.

That's wild. If I were racing at trek, I would actually prefer the old madone with the new bottles, faster is better😅

I agree, TV coverage of three stages as a one-time-only does nothing for the sport of cycling.

You can both be right - the scheme was introduced by Labour, but the fines levied under it increased dramatically in 2023 under the Tories.
