Team Sky reveals new-look Pinarello Dogma team bikes
British WorldTour team posts photos of its 2016 Pinarello Dogma F8 team bikes, with new livery
Team Sky has released images of its 2016 Pinarello Dogma F8 team bike, complete with newly-reworked paintjob.
Sky's predominantly black and blue colourscheme is retained from this season, but with the addition of white stripes on the fork blades and seat tube.
Italian manufacturer Pinarello has provided bikes to the squad since Sky made its debut in 2010, so this will be the seventh year of the successful partnership.
In that time, Sky riders have piloted Pinarello bikes to over 200 wins, including three editions of the Tour de France with Bradley Wiggins (2012) and Chris Froome (2013 and 2015).
"Three Tour de France victories in six years and a huge number of wins and podiums - these results alone would be enough to be proud of this team," said Pinarello president Fausto Pinarello.

"But the union between Pinarello and Team Sky is much more. We are two innovation-oriented companies and we aim to achieve many more victories together."

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
