James, not being snarky, just can't remember... have you ever done an Ironman? I know your 70.3 palmares.

Your position of course looks great for 180km

You've made this thread.

Now we need a thread on how to develop proper head position. A priory for me, and others as well.

-1 saddle going up ass (you old school cyclists are crazy with your saddle choices)
-1 for rear skewer lack of aeroness
-3 for white kit
-1 for "roadie-ish" aero position (super compact, tight hip angle, relatively slacker, lack of hip roll)
+ 4 for still punching a really small hole in the air

Does everyone agree that the old P3 is still one of the best bikes out there?

It's very, very fast. Only downside is lack of compatibility with certain integrated nutrition, wires, and wider wheels/tires. I don't have a side shot of this, but the watts/cda was pretty good.

Comparing my cockpit with yours and have to ask........Stem spacers are bad, but pad spacers are allowed? Serious question as I’d move my spacers from stem to pads to improve my score.

Regarding the P3, hoping to see someone address cockpit integration with the Profile Design Aeria Ultimate (and prototype nosecone BTA bottle).

Yes. Pad spacers are more aero than steerer tube spacers.

No sorry I did not mean to imply that. I'm just a UPS driver we use that acronym for other things.

yes, pad spacers >>>>>> steerer tube spacers. more aesthetically pleasing as well. i believe i have read/heard that you either want your armpads basically directly on the basebar OR at least 15mm pedestaled for optimum aerodynamics.

True. True. But then duathlons are harder so there is that.
My position is the same regardless of distance anyway. It’s changed a bit since that race. Longer extensions. Rotated slightly up and different helmet.

no points possible, must have at least an oblique side angle pic. although i can tell right now -1 for having some sort of sail on your back. also, further research has revealed that the pic you posted is not from a long course triathlon.
