Spelled backwards, it says "Amgod".

Coincidence? You decide.

Well, since their second choice was the Pinarello Cant, I think they made the right the decision.

I am always puzzled why an Italian bike company names their bikes English names or at least spells them out in English. They'd keep their Italian edge if they used Italian names. As its going now eventually the names will be in Chinese.

It's to make room for the american bike companies that give their bikes italian names.

Things could be worse. The poor Japanese get bikes made by Anchor.

Let's rule out the fact that 90% of Italians are Catholic as a means behind the naming...although I would find it perfectly acceptable

if we examine the seat stays, headtube shape and fork on their Dogma, "beliefs that are accepted without reason or evidence not to be disputed or doubted" is an appropriate Name. they say it works therefore it is so.

However I believe they were trying to state that the design is imaginative etc. which might just be a different interpretation of the word Italian to English

It wouldn't have anything to do with those curvy stays and forks now, would it?
