Have bought a used trinity composite 2 from an guy at 57, he had a 70.2 on his bucket list, and had got the bike for this purpose. His belly was hit by his legs while riding, thus he didnt like the bike. It had driven less than 500k when i got it.

Now with new wheels (Vision 88mm trimax) , change of bars, BTA and rear cage it is the smoothest and fastest ride I ever have tried.

But really, changing brake pads is a PITA, and why do you need to take the rearwheel backwards when removing it.
