So I’m in the age old conundrum of upgrading to a tri-specific bike. Right now, I have an aluminum road bike, clip on bars, aluminum rims, regular bottle cages, regular cycling clothes, and gator skin tires. With that, I do 3 hour rides at about 22mph. I do not have a power meter (yet).
My question is, how much faster would I be with the full kit. I’m talking aero bike with integrated bars, aero storage, deep carbon wheels, tri suit and helmet, fast tires, the whole 9 yards. I’m aware of some online calculators, but you guys have real, personal experience, and I wanted to get your opinion. How much faster could I go?
