2. General Notes about Assembly
- Before assembly, inspect all components (frame, fork, seatpost, handlebar, headset top cap and spacers) to ensure that there aren't any sharp edges, burrs, or cracks.
- In the case of any crack, DO NOT continue assembly and immediately contact Pinarello Customer Service.
- All edges of the handlebar, stem, top cap and spacers in contact with the steer tube should be rounded out to eliminate stress points.
- Do not drill, remove parts or modify the frame components in any way. Not following this warning could result in injury or death.
- Do not install incompatible components. Use of other components may compromise the integrity of the assembly.
3. Tools and Torque Specs
Use the proper tightening torques as it is essential for the correct function and to avoid loosening or causing structural damages. In certain cases, tightening torques ensure mechanical couplings; in other cases, they prevent loosening. Depending on the application, the threads should be greased or treated with thread-lockers. Refer to the chart below for the proper torque to be applied and for the treatment.
Suggested thread-lockers are: Loctite 222, Arexons System 52A22. To lubricate threads, never use lithium-based grease.
Component | Torque [Nm] | Thread | Tool |
---|---|---|---|
Seat Post: fixing clamp | 4 | Lubricated | Torx T20 |
Seat Post: saddle rail bolts | 6 (front) | Lubricated | 10 mm HEX key (front) |
9 (rear) | Lubricated | 5 mm Allen key (rear) | |
Stem: fork tube fixing bolt | 6 | Thread-locker | Torx T20 |
Expander: inside steer tube | 10 | Lubricated | Allen key 6 mm |
Cap on top of the stem | 2 | Thread-locker | Allen key 5 mm |
Bottle Cage | 2 | Thread-locker | Torx T25 |
BB Cover | 1 | Thread-locker | Torx T20 |
BB | 40 | / | / |
Levers on handlebar | 5 | / | / |
Thru Axle | 8 | / | Allen key 6 mm |
Fork flap chip mount | 1 | Thread-locker | Allen key 2 mm |
Use MOST Safegrip paste on the seat post before installing it. After the first ride, and consistently thereafter, recheck the tightness of each bolt to ensure secure attachment of the components.
4. Hose and Di2 Cable Length Recommendation
To properly assemble the Dogma F MY25, it is recommended to use the following minimum housing and hose lengths, which will then be cut according to the frame and handlebar size.
FRONT Brake | REAR Brake | |
---|---|---|
DISC Brakes minimum hose length [mm] | 1000 | 1700 |
FRONT Derailleur | REAR Derailleur | |
DISC Brakes minimum hose length [mm] | 350 | 750 |
5. Disc Brake: Installation and Hose Routing Shimano and SRAM
- Route the Rear Brake (RB) hose from the left chainstay hole to the top tube. The RB hose must route above the Bottom Bracket (BB) sleeve. Pass the RB hose inside the foam tube. Refer to chapter "4. HOUSING AND HOSE LENGTH RECCOMENDATION" for the correct hose length. Push the RB hose onto the special clips located inside the frame in correspondence with the BB and Down Tube.
- Install the rear brake caliper. Connect the rear brake to the left chainstay. Tighten the bolt until the brake is locked. It will be fully tightened only after alignment with disc rotor (refer to chapter "14. FINAL CHECKS" for more details). Follow the brake OEM assembly instructions.
- Route the Front Brake (FB) hose through the fork entry hole (left fork arm) and up to the exit hole on the steer tube. Refer to chapter "4. HOUSING AND HOSE LENGTH RECCOMENDATION" for the correct hose length.
- Install the FB caliper to the fork. Tighten the bolt until the brake is locked. It will be fully tightened only after alignment with disc rotor (refer to chapter "14. FINAL CHECKS" for more details). Follow the brake OEM assembly instructions.
- Headset top cap assembly: Install the lower headset bearing 1" 1/2 into the proper frame seat. Apply grease around the bearing frame seat. Push the steer tube up into the head tube. Capture the FB hose inside the bearing and push up through the head tube. Use a proper support for the fork while installing.
6. Disc Brake: Installation and Hose Routing Campagnolo
- Route the RB hose internally from the right side of the handlebar to the left exit hole below the stem. The RB hose must remain on the left side through all headset components.
- Route the FB hose internally from the left side of the handlebar to the right exit hole below the stem. The FB hose must remain on the right side through all headset components.
- Headset top cap assembly: Apply the correct number of spacers under the handlebar. Install the headset top cap. Make sure to keep the RB hose on the left notch in the headset top cap, and the FB hose on the right notch in the headset top cap. Install the compression ring. The cut on the compression ring must be facing the rear. The RB hose must be on the left notch in the compression ring. The FB hose must be on the right notch in the compression ring. Install the upper bearing 1" ½ in its frame seat. Make sure to capture the RB hose and the FB hose between the bearing and steer tube. Apply grease around the bearing frame seat. Refer to chapter "4. HOUSING AND HOSE LENGTH RECCOMENDATION" for the correct hose length.
- Route the RB hose from the top tube to the left chain stay hole. RB hose must route above the Bottom Bracket (BB) sleeve. Pass the RB hose inside the foam tube. Push the RB hose onto the special clips located inside the frame in correspondence with the BB and Down Tube.
- Route the FB hose firstly through the head tube and then through the fork entry hole on the steer tube to the exit hole (left fork arm).
- Install the RB caliper. Connect the rear brake to the left chain stay. Tighten the bolt until the brake is locked. It will be fully tightened only after alignment with disc rotor (refer to chapter "14. FINAL CHECKS" for more details).
7. Shimano Di2 Installation and Cable Routing
- Electronic cable routing:
- Rear Derailleur (RD): pull 750 mm cable EW-SD300 from the right chain stay to the BB window.
- Front derailleur (FD): pull 350 mm cable EW-SD300 from the hole above FD to the BB window.
8. Headset Assembly
- Handlebar stack can be adjusted using the split spacers by 10mm and/or by 5mm.
- Interlock, as illustrated below, the required number of spacers between top cap and the handlebar. Be careful that spacers and top cap have pins for alignment. Make sure that all cables are well positioned into the proper notch and they are not twisted around each other.
- See the below specifications about the maximum spacer heights allowed: 50 mm below the stem, 20 mm over the stem.
- The following paragraphs refer to the cutting process of the steer tube; if you don't need to cut the steer tube, go straight to the next paragraph.
- Install the number of spacers previously planned between the handlebar and the top cap. Slide the handlebar down the steer tube, until it and the spacers are firmly seated on the top cap. Slightly tighten the handlebar to keep all headset components in place.
9. Integrated Handlebar Assembly
- Once the cable routing process and the headset adjustment is complete, the handlebar must be secured to the fork steer tube. Fix the expander inside steer tube.
- Insert the stem clamp between handlebar and steer tube. Apply top cap and M6 dedicated screw and tighten the headset.
- Tighten the two bolts of the stem clamp. For the correct tightening torques refer to chapter "3. TOOLS AND TORQUE SPECS".
10. Saddle Assembly
- Start from the front hexagonal head screw: assemble the components as in the picture below and loosely tighten to hold everything in place.
- Complete the same process with the hexagonal socket screw on the back.
- Place the saddle in position, lift it to tension both screws, and place the lower clamp under the rails.
- Tighten both screws each in small progressions. Do not completely tighten one and then the second. For the correct tightening torques refer to chapter "3. TOOLS AND TORQUE SPECS".
11. Seatpost Assembly
- Apply MOST Safegrip paste on the lower part of the seatpost to increase the friction with the seatpost pocket.
- Insert the Seatpost Clamp (SC) inside its pocket. Verify the correct direction of the SC with the writing "UP" on the upper side.
- Insert the seatpost into the seat tube and tighten the SC screws. For the correct tightening torques refer to chapter "3. TOOLS AND TORQUE SPECS".
12. Cable Routing Summary
Before continuing, check that cable routing follows this chapter. If you need to swap brakes at the levers, invert cables inside the integrated handlebar only.
13. Final Assembly
Install FD, RD, BB, crankset and the chain following the OEM instruction and recommended torques. BB compatibility: Italian thread 36 x 24T.
14. Final Checks
- Complete final tightening of the front and rear disc brakes checking their correct centering with rotors while following the OEM instructions. Disc brake calipers are provided loose, make sure to tighten them following OEM specs before first ride. Make also sure that the disc brakes are properly bled (following OEM specs) before first ride.
- Fine tune the drivetrain (both rear and front derailleur) following OEM specs.
- Before first ride, carefully check the correct assembly and operation of all components; repeat these controls periodically.
