So, I'm a former runner and current road cyclist who also lap swims, but I've never done a triathlon. Don't own any specific tri gear. Here's the catch: I'm 6"5 and 170 pounds with a 37" inseam, basically like Joe Dombrowski but taller. I figure I need a medium tall wetsuit, but what do I wear under the wetsuit? I can't find any tall triathlon suits, and cycling jerseys are never long enough for me, so I wear bibs, which are also too short, so my wife cuts the straps off and sews 3-4 inches of spandex on. Tri shorts and no shirt? My cycling team long sleeve skinsuit? Something else?
I don't really want to rock the midriff showing look. I run shirtless frequently but definitely, definitely have never ridden shirtless and I have no idea if triathletes do that or not. Plus, I know that skin and armpits aren't very aero.
