Many of us are familiar with Pinarello as the brand of bikes that Team Sky powers to some of the most prestigious road race victories on the calendar. We marvel at how quickly the pros are able to ride their bikes and appear nearly tireless during the longest stage races and often wonder what that sensation would feel like. PED jokes aside, what if we told you the Dyodo eRoad Bike from Pinarello allowed you to do just that and whether you're just getting into road cycling and you'd like to keep up with your buddies, wonder how much more you'd commute with electric assist, or maybe you have a health condition and want to ride just as fast and as far as you used to' Well, electric assist can help.

The hub-based motor adds 250-watts and is powered by a battery that's fully recharged in 4 hours. This allows Pinarello to get the center of gravity low and allow it to build the frame, especially its downtube and bottom bracket junction, retaining a house-favorite Ital...
