Odd frame reinforcement piece under the top tube.

Love this detail!

Doesn't look like it's been built with Di2 in mind, though. Wonder if that means it's further away than we think.
So it's a slave-labour built Hetchins inspired hybrid with a bloody silly name? 🙂
I thought better of you Flashy.
Typical "style-over-substance" Italian TAT, seriously; overpriced shite. At least any high end Italian frames I've seen have been.
GOP-PING also.
Nothing on that bike looks right, frankly its a bloody mess.
those chainstays look terrible.
it's got exploding nano particles in it. what's not to like?

The Dogma XC features a unique seat stay design that Pinarello calls “ONDA XC Asymmetric Twin Arms.”
ONDA = Oh No, Dat's Awful?
Dear Pinarello,
Stop calling everything "Dogma". Other names are available.
Also, if you could get someone to actually design your bikes rather than using a load of random tubing that someone tripped over in the factory and bent to ****, that'd be good.
Nice reinforcing bit under the down tube. What about something on the chainstays and seatstays where all your other bikes break?
On the plus side though, you did obviously decide that it already looks so ugly that you don't need to give it your normal "explosion-in-a-paint-factory" colour scheme.
Flasher has gone quiet, oh dear:

So, which bikes do you like Al?
More conservative styling I suppose, clean lines, straight tubes etc. Doggy style ones too - Nomad etc.
Al, where did I say I liked it? (Apart from the lovely seat cluster detail, that is). So, hardly "pwned", my dear old thing.
Just thought it was a rather interesting piece to look at, from a design perspective, and also from a bike industry perspective - Interesting to see Pinarello getting back in to MTB after such a long time away.
LOL!

It'd look loads better if the saddle was level and it had some meatier tyres on it.
I bet it's as light as buggery so I like it.
Ah, the back-pedalling defence! Nice! 🙂
Good to see you are spiffing at taking a jape my old chum!
Al, I think the rest of us were taking the piss out of the bike, not the OP.
I assumed he could take a joke...
Well, try making one instead of just being a knob and see how he reacts.

Just like all Pinarellos, utterly disgusting.
