New 04 Prince SL
      01/06/04 10:44 PM (209.179.232.251)

Just picked up a new 04 Prince Sl with full 03 Dura ace, Topolino wheels and in the storm black color. It has a very nice ride with excellent pick up and it feels very fast. I was a little reluctant to go with a Pinarello as I have not been very happy with aluminum bikes in the past. Six months ago I purchased a Pegretti CCKMP with U2 tubing and was pleasantly surprised by the comfort of this bike so I took the chance on the Pinarello.

The tubing on the Prince SL is a space age tubing used as military tubing with much greater strength, 33% less weight and greater compliance as 7000 series aluminum . It has a firm ride but does not beat you up after a 3-4 hour ride. Overall I am pleased with the bike. I won't do double centuries on the bike but a metric or maybe even a century will be in order.
