Meet the absurdly priced Pinarello Dogma 2 with Campy electric — $16,500.

Sadly, it won’t make you go any faster.

Pinarello seems intent on leveraging its reputable and well-earned heritage to sell over-priced Taiwanese junk.

I’d much rather get a $720 Langster — these things look cool, are spec’ed well and priced right…

And this is a chrome plated Pinarello…
