"Let me tell you what I think about bicycling. I think it has done more to emancipate women than anything else in the world. It gives women a feeling of freedom and self-reliance. I stand and rejoice every time I see a woman ride by on a wheel.. the picture of free, untrammeled womanhood." ~ Susan B. Anthony

Dogma for sale!

Yup, Gj's given up the Dogma!
Ridden very little (compared to me!!) as Gj typically used another bike for riding.  This was his 'Sunday Best' and he probably put less then 4,000kms on it since I bought it for his 40th birthday 6 years ago.

Details:

2005 Pinarello Dogma FP AK-61  Magnesium  Fassa Bortolo Team Edition
Custom made for Fabio Sacchi with lot of Fassa Bortolo gear extra.
  
Up for consideration is an authentic 2005 Team Edition Fassa Bortolo
Pinarello Dogma FP AK-61 Magnesium.

This bike was bought from the Pinarello factory in the Summer of 2006 after the closure of the Fassa Bortolo Team and Fassa Team riders Alessandro Petacchi and Fabio Sacchi joined the newly founded Team MILRAM in 2006.

This is a truly unique bike and has the race-number tab on the underside of the top-tube and also has the FB-13 as part of the frame serial number on the bottom bracket.
The frame also has the SACCHI name stickers as well as his #3 on the seat stay.

It is worth noting that Sacchi was part of the lead out train supporting Petacchi in several wins during 2005 and prior years and that he won the Milano  - San Remo stage race that same year.

The Bike is fully original and as ridden by Sacchi.  The only modification was that I changed the Deda Newton Stem from a 150 to a 130 as this reach was a bit too long for me.  I can include either stem and up to you.

Bike as all Campagnolo Record 10 sp ULTRA and the Magnesium Tubing is Dedacchiai AK-61
Pinarello Dogma AK-61 is to my knowledge the only Magnesium frame road bike that went to mas production and Pinarello was very successful with this model being the choice of the Fassa Bortolo Team and Alessandro Petacchi.
2006 was won on the AK-61 Dogma as well and by Spaniard Pereiro.

Frame condition is good but as this was a race bike, there are some small scratches here and there.  I will not attempt to rate overall cosmetic conditions as I find this purely subjective.  I will say it is a beautiful bike and the scratches as noted are mostly found on the White section on the down tube.

The (custom) dimensions of this Frame are listed in the diagram as well as several pictures of the actual bike and ………also what appears to be the same bike in pictures with Sacchi (cannot guarantee this)

I am approximately 180cm tall and the bike fit me well but a bit “stretched out” and too much of a hard core racing bike for the riding I do nowadays.

Buyer of asking price of USD $4000, will also receive the following to outfit your Fassa wardrobe:
  • Full Kit; shirt and bibs and socks all new
  • Fassa jacket (used but as new)
  • DMT Flash Carbon Petacchi edition road shoes (used but as new) size 42 EU.
  • Gloves (used)
  • 2 ELITE Fassa water bottles (66mm)
  • Petacchi framed Dogma poster
  • Shop banner Pinarello Dogma with Petacchi
  • New Pinarello Bar Tape
  • Original Pinarello Bike box (as shipped from the factory)
  • Pinarello stickers

The Bike has MOsT  Pinarello in house brand Wheels and Continental Pinarello edition tires.  These wheels are not the high end race wheels once used on this bike. The Campagnolo Neutron wheels that came with this bike are not in good shape and I am not comfortable selling these – they where added to the bike but not the original wheels  - (Sacchi used Bora G3 Wheels as his race wheels.)
The current Pinarello wheels that will come with this Dogma are virtually brand new and tires appear not worn / new.

The SIGMA computer is also original and has not been changed since the bike was a FASSA Team Bike.

Please see the PDF file with pictures of the Bike and all the gear as described above.

This is a truly unique bike and a collector item.  This is not a forced sale and I am firm on this price and it is relevant considering the price I paid and as little use the bike has had since I acquired it in late 2006.

USD$ 4000,-

For more information, reply and I will contact you.
