K8-S bike. This bike features a new lightweight suspension system (DSS).
1.0, Dogma Suspension System), flexible flat carbon rear forks (FLEXSTAYS) and innovative shock absorption units on the rear tripod ensure a perfect and comfortable ride on rough terrain.

　　Pinarello’s work focuses on creating innovative frames that further reduce driver discomfort on rough roads and help relieve driver fatigue.

For the pioneering aerodynamic technology demonstrated by the F8, Jaguar engineers applied their advanced technology and experience in smoothing and vibration analysis to make this model the same as the previous generation DOGMA.
Compared to the K model, the overall performance has been improved by 4.6%, and the riding comfort on rough roads has been improved by 50%.

　　Sky Team’s renowned driver, Sir Bradley Wiggins, said: "Although the Pinarello DOGMA K8-S looks similar to DOGMA
The F8 looks the same, but the moment you sit on it, you immediately feel the difference between them, especially when riding on cobblestone roads. "

　　The defending UCI World Championships time trial champion added: "The cobblestones are the toughest roads for cycling and riding DOGMA
The riding experience of the K8-S on the cobblestone pavement is unprecedented, and its aerodynamics, stiffness, and improved curved design of the rear frame are among the few in the bicycle field. "

　　"This is the first professional bike built for the harsh conditions of the cobblestone pavement. When riding the K8-S compared to other bikes, the riding experience was very different. It gave us a lot of confidence and gave us a huge advantage on the cobblestone pavement."

　　"The technological innovation used in this model relies on the perfect collaboration between Team Sky and Jaguar, an expert in car manufacturing, so the level of innovation and innovation is far higher than that of other teams and other bicycle manufacturers."

　　Fausto Pinarello, CEO of Pinarello, said: "DOGMA
The K8-S could revolutionize road racing. DOGMA
The K8-S absorbs only the necessary road impact, allowing the rider to maintain optimum strength and precision while pedaling. For cobblestone road riding, DOGMA
The K8-S is the perfect bike. "

　　Sky Team Principal Dave
Mr. Brailsford said: "This time, we have delivered truly ground-breaking research and development for this accomplished cycling team and fitness experts, based on Pinarello’s world-class bike design concepts and Jaguar’s industry-leading engineering."

　　"The DOGMA F8 is the first substantive breakthrough in this collaboration, and we have now further improved it. In terms of bike performance, DOGMA
K8-S is undoubtedly a major leap forward. It’s rare that such a small design innovation can have such a huge impact. And the advantages of collaboration are not only reflected in this. "

　　"With Ian
Stannard’s victory at the Newspaper Circle and Geraint’s victory at the E3 Classic gave us a good start to the season. But the uncertainty of the Classic this season is not only exciting for the drivers, but also a great opportunity for us to build on our success. "

　　DOGMA
After several months of laboratory and field testing, the K8-S was monitored using accelerometers, power meters, and GPS to ensure driver safety and the performance and efficiency of the new frame.

　　In March, Bradley Wiggins and Christian Knees joined DOGMA
The K-Series bikes successfully conquered the classic cobblestone section of the last 130km of the Paris-Roubet single-day race, which is also the current and previous DOGMA
The road section where the K series frame is tested for comparison.

　　Tim from Jaguar Land Rover Vehicle Power.
Mr. Donovan said: "Jaguar’s success in developing models that can be adapted to a wide range of surfaces around the world gives us the ability to develop for cobblestone surfaces."

　　Donova added: "As an avid amateur cyclist, I have ridden the classic Pinarello bike in many of the famous cobblestone road races of the Spring Classics, and I remember Ian
The images of Stannard winning the 2014 Newspaper Tour in the rain, and his re-victory in 2015. For me, working with him and the rest of Team Sky in these legendary races has been a great experience. "

　　Mark, Global Brand Experience Director, Jaguar Land Rover
Cameron commented: "Jaguar Land Rover cars are widely praised for their balanced performance, refined design and comfortable ride, which is what we have been working on with Pinarello and Sky Team for DOGMA
The beliefs we abide by in the development and cooperation of the K8-S model. With a common ambition to continuously push the boundaries of high performance, innovation and technology, we are committed to DOGMA
The anticipation for the K8-S is already palpable.
