I’m thinking ahead for a possible build. Wanting to build “superbike” but cheap. Alright with buying a lot of stuff used bc it’s worth it and can save a lot of $$. A lot of idea behind this is that windtunnel data have shown bikes like p2/p3 built with right stuff isn’t much “slower” than ur superbikes.
I did have a 2014 p3 w 10spd mechanical, quarq, Tri rig brakes, 3t breeze ltd base bar, 3t ski extensions, Flo 90/disc wheelset but unfortunately sold it bc I stepped away from Tri to do crit and road racing.
So want your thoughts: I’m not sold on 1x solely so that’s not a discussion due to where I live and terrain.
-2014+ Cervelo P2 or P3
-Etap or di2 (I have etap on my 2017 trek madone and could put etap on TT bike and put mechanical groupset on madone)
-Tri Rig Brakes
-alpha X or alpha one (I’m not sure which one bc I will be doing high hands, even full praying mantis position so have to consider base bars ability to tilt extensions and keep base bar flat). Thoughts or suggestions on this? Been seeing the revolver arm cups w the built up back end to help keep elbows from slipping.
-not sure on aero extensions
-Quarq
-I have Flo carbon 60’s so May stick w 60 for front and get a Flo disc.
Anything else to consider?
Thanks
