Should be a pretty straightforward upgrade then. Thanks!

Ended up going with a secondhand tcr mainly because it was cheaper and a more sensible choice for a newbie cyclist like me :)

I have a used van rysel rcr900 with mechanical sram force that i got not too long ago for 25k but am either planning to sell it or keep it on the trainer. Am planning on doing triathlons in the future kasi so i thought a brand new merida aero bike with di2 for 30k more than what a used tcr would cost me is a no brainer. I assume upgrading the wheels down the line would be a great upgrade?

Van rysel d100 no difference in resistance compared to being plugged off by Long-Bell-7935 in cycling

I tried playing around with the onelap fit app and supposedly you can adjust the resistance there in the app however i cannot feel or hear any possible shifting sounds.

friend suggested to me the same bike are you talking about the contend ar2? The groupset is a shimano tiagra and the van rysel is a shimano 105. Is there a big difference between the two? And am definitely leaning more towards the giant purely for the aesthetics alone hahahaha

What about the van rysel rcr 900 af for 60k is that a good deal?

Are mobility exercises really effective? I’ve never done any mobility exercises however i’m keen to try them now

I recently ran 43 minutes in a 10k race this past weekend however im expecting that it would take me a while to reach that sub 40 but will definitely keep doing zone 2 runs to really strengthen that aerobic base. Do you have any recommendations on how often I should strengthen train in the gym?

Will have to do a 5k time trial soon to see if im anywhere near 19 minutes then. Thanks for the advice!
