Hi, I have searched and can't find anything so please feel free to point me in the right direction. Thanks
I recently had a fit done and it confirmed my thoughts that my 2013 Cervelo P2 is one size too big (purchased second hand 2 years ago to see if I liked time trialling, I do so it's on the market and I'm looking for a new bike). We have fitted it the best we can for now but it is still a bit too big.
I like the P2 because it has standard brake positions and stem and has heaps of adjustability.
I was looking at second hand bikes and I can buy a second hand older (10 speed Ultegra) Kuota Kalibur for $600 AUD which has the same brake/stem set up or a new P2 (11 speed 105) for about $3000 AUD.
I will put my race wheels on either.
I'm not super fast, averaging about 35kmh for a 25km TT with limited training time.
My question is, is there any real benefit in buying the Cervelo when, if it fits, the Kuota (or another second hand bike if any come up) is so much cheaper?
I would appreciate any thoughts.
Cheers
