my triathlon history.
I'm in my third year of triathlon.
1st year - 3 sprints. 1 Olympic
2nd year - 1 Olympic. 2 HIM
This year - 1 off-road triathlon (done). 2-3 sprint triathlons. 1 Olympic 1 HIM.
Next year's plan. HIM. Full Ironman in fall.
I'm looking at some aero improvements for the cycling leg so I just curious where my money is best spent. I don't have a set budget but I'd like to keep it under $1000 if possible.
My current cycling equipment.
Cervelo P2. Stock everything other than saddle and tires.
Lazer Z1 Helmet.
These are the upgrades I'm considering.
Power meter
Aero Helmet
Front-aero wheel (I read a front-aero wheel makes the most difference)
I was thinking of the garmin vector 2s. I have a road bike too so I'd like to be able to switch between the two.
Helmet I'm considering the POC Sports. Lazer Wasp Air. S-Works-Evade. POC Octal Aero.
- I could also add the Aeroshell to my Lazer Z1 helmet but I can't imagine even with that it would compare to the other aero helmets
front aero wheel (if budget allows) probably flo 60. need to research others.
Should I not get a power meter and just upgrade my helmet and wheels? Other suggestions are welcome.
