194cm rider - good deal on a Dogma F ($8k) but worried I’m forcing myself onto a 57.5. Need fit advice.
Hey everyone,
I’m stuck in a bike-fit dilemma and hoping to get input from people who know Pinarello geometry better than I do.
I found what seems like a really good deal on a 2024 Pinarello Dogma F for around $8,000 USD:
- Size 57.5
- Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 12-speed
- Princeton Peak 4550 EVO wheels
- March 2024 bike
- Integrated MOST Talon cockpit
- Bike appears to be in very good condition
The issue is the fit.
I’m 194 cm (6'4"), and from everything online, I should probably be looking at a 59.5 or maybe even a 62.
But my fit is a bit unusual.
Current bike:
- S-Works SL6
- Size 58
- 150 mm stem
- Fairly aggressive position
Bike fit coordinates:
- Handlebar reach: 632 mm
- Grip reach: 749 mm
- Bar drop: 170 mm
- Grip width: 378 mm
So I clearly need a pretty long front end.
The confusing part is that when I compare geometries, the 57.5 Dogma isn’t dramatically shorter than the 59.5 in reach, but it is lower in stack.
Can I make the 57.5 work with a long cockpit and maybe some spacer adjustment?
