Nel 1967 le bici Pinarello entrarono nel mondo del professionismo con la squadra Mainetti, arrivando nel 1975 alla prima vittoria al Giro d'Italia con Fausto Bertoglio in maglia Jollj Ceramica[2][5]. Il primo Tour de France vinto nel Tour de France 1988 con Pedro Delgado, che vinse anche la Vuelta nell'anno successivo.
