The frame is constructed using a new high-strength carbon which is slightly less rigid than that used to build the F8. While still a performance road bike, these changes should make the bike more comfortable for a non pro rider.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"specsList\">\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">FRAME: <\/span><span class=\"row_data\"> 2016 Pinarello GAN S T700<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">STYLE: Road<\/span><span class=\"row_data\">Road<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">FORK: <\/span><span class=\"row_data\">Pinarello Carbon <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">BOTTOM BRACKET: <\/span><span class=\"row_data\">Shimano Ultegra Italian thread BB<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">CRANKSET: <\/span><span class=\"row_data\">Shimano Ultegra Compact<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">STEM: <\/span><span class=\"row_data\">Tiger alu aero sandblast anodized black<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">SEATPOST: <\/span><span class=\"row_data\">Pinarello Carbon<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">HANDLEBAR: <\/span><span class=\"row_data\">Jaguar x\/a aero alu sandblast anodized black<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">FRONT DERAILLEUR: <\/span><span class=\"row_data\">Shimano Ultegra<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">REAR DERAILLEUR: <\/span><span class=\"row_data\">Shimano Ultegra<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">SHIFTERS: <\/span><span class=\"row_data\">Shimano Ultegra<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">BRAKES: <\/span><span class=\"row_data\">Shimano Ultegra<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">SADDLE: <\/span><span class=\"row_data\">FI:ZIK Airone R7<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">WHEELSET: <\/span><span class=\"row_data\">Fulcrum Racing 7<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">TIRES: <\/span><span class=\"row_data\">Vittoria<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"row_title\">RETAIL PRICE:<\/span><span class=\"row_data\">R66,000.00<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Visit the Pinarello website for more information on the GAN S <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinarello.com\/en\/bike-2016\/road\/gan-s\" rel=\"external nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If you like this bike and would like the chance to own one, vote for it in the Best Bike in Africa at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.africacyclefair.com\/\" rel=\"external nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Standard Bank Africa Cycle Fair<\/a> on 23 &#8211; 25 October at St Stithians College.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.africacyclefair.com\/\" rel=\"external nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><a class=\"ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ccs-62657-0-81130400-1444721670.jpg\" data-fileid=\"613031\" data-fileext=\"jpg\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-fileid=\"613031\" class=\"ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed\" alt=\"ccs-62657-0-81130400-1444721670.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ccs-62657-0-81130400-1444721670.jpg\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Best Bike in Africa will be held at the 2015 Standard Bank Africa Cycle Fair on 23 &#8211; 25 October at St Stithians College, Johannesburg.
