Pinarello Razh Veloce

[Sully]

Seen one of these for sale, right size, but more money than I'd hoped but what's your thoughts please ???
Not a racer, 45 yr old trying to keep fit, few Sportives and enjoying his cycling

Do you like it? That's what's important
Personally however I wouldn't buy a second hand carbon bike if I didn't have to. There are some deals out there. How was your trip to Planet X?

I think Veloce is entry level. Sora equivalent. I'd want better on a bike that is presumably £1k or more?

If money is a concern then stay away from Pinarello, half the cost is paying for the name.

 

[vickster]

Indeed. A dull looking bike too IMO for that money

Veloce same as Sora! Tullio just turned in his grave. It's equivalent to 105 (or maybe the latest Tiagra).
I wouldn't buy one. Nice enough if you like the look and find it's the right geometry for you.

Fair enough I was going by the low cost of the groupset at £300 and that's it's their lowest groupset?? Looks to be 10 speed so I guess tiagra or apex level, my bad

No idea who Tullio was

I've sat on it and loved it, 3 Yr frame warranty, the Veloce is actually highly rated and I like the heritage factor and not simply gone with the norm of Shram or Shimano, frame I should be able too upgrade, and paid just over a grand for a brand new bike, was going to pay that for a Btwin ! Just want the weather to improve so I can ride it !

Veloce is excellent. The Razha is a decent enough bike and will probably suit you well. All the Pinarellos have much the same geometry, the Razha is just a bit softer and more forgiving at the rear end. Hammer it. Nothing will let you down. Congratulations.

Good buy at that price. Get some miles on it!

You must have a garage full by now, or did the others fall through
