Hi,
It's time to get a proper Tri/TT bike for the season ahead. Till now I've been riding a road bike with aerobars installed and would like to upgrade as I'm going to take part in my first full distance IM event this September. My budget is around 5000 EUR for now. I am 6'4 tall with standard inseam.
Although there are plenty of bikes to choose from, they are in vast majority dedicated for disc brakes and I am not an enthusiast of that solution on road bikes, besides I've got a nice Xentis Mark 3 wheelset and would not like to get rid of it because of a brake technology applied to the new bike frame. Currently my best choice is Canyon Speedmax CF 8.0 LTD, but since it is previous year model, I'm afraid that the stock will be clear of them before I will be capable to make actual purchase - currently L size is said to be low on stock.
So I need secondary options if that is going to happen. I was looking at Cube Aerium c:68 SL or Argon E119 Tri+, any other similar suggestions?
