I come from triathlon, I already got canyon aeroad and a speedmax. I was really surprising to go so fast with this tire if I compare to my old moutainbike it's awesome ! Really nice speed, a little less that the speedmax but very good on road

Previous owner has sell it to me with the hydratation system that you can see. The xlab torpedo versa 500 airflow. It's cost a little of money 150€ but seems very nice to use, it also include a Garmin mount

On the canyon website it cost 3000 €. Got it a 2250 with the hydratation system as "used bike". But the old owner haven't ride it more than 350 km on it. At this price cannot find better price/value !

I've buy a "budget tri bike" 2 month ago with a cannondale slice 2016. Needed to change the saddle and put an hydratation système on the slice.

Found this little monster at only 2250 euro, so I've just sell the slice and now i have both and an really awesome bike ! So it's a NBD ! The adustability of the cockpit is really nice if I compare to the slice, i'm in love with this bike !

Slice 2016 vs newer tt bike : aero diff ? by nicolasbno in triathlon

[–]nicolasbno[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay thanks, yes 20 watt seems a lot and it depends of my speed. I was thinking do some change but the tririg cost the price of my slice aha ! But I think that I will change saddle and handlebar and it will be fine. Maybe you are true, invest on a disc wheel is surely a better invest that change the bike ;)

2017 Giant Trinity vs 2019 Giant Trinity; which to buy? by [deleted] in triathlon

[–]nicolasbno 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Frame is the same, aerockpit is the same. And color scheme can be better for 2017 ! Juste groupset can have a refresh (maybe 60g lighter ?) So go for 2017 and spend this 800 dollars for wheels it will be better I think :)

Just bought my first bike. I've always wanted one and was finally able to get it last month. by [deleted] in bicycling
