Cons
Con Hard to scale well
Because it's rather small and minimalistic, scaling up is not very easy with Sinatra. You need a great deal of knowledge on libraries and modules that may be useful for your particular use-case. As your application grows larger it may be hard to keep things clean and minimalistic, losing a lot of the advantages that Sinatra has.
Con No NOSQL integration
Only used ORM, not ODM.
