I can find lots of ideas for a "relaxed" road bike- cervelo, felt and specialized all have well promoted offerings and it seems high performance and comfort are readily available.
No manufacturer seem to promote one of their tri bike models as particularly suitable for an older (55) athlete, less flexible, wants more comfort. Probably not ever doing iron distance, too many hip and leg problems from broken leg in 2007 but can do 5 hour rides w no problem.
I've been riding a Valdora aluminum frame for 4-5 years, looking for an upgrade sometime this fall or early 09.
Ideas? Don't say "custom". I looked at ideas for road bike with clip on bars but at the time nothing seemed to fit as well as the Valdora.
don't just do something..... sit there
