Does anyone know what platforms is he using?
He was in the leader pack into T2 in Mazatlan’s ITU World Cup last April. He was not the first one to dismount (seemed to me he was number four) but he was the first one out of T2. He finished fourth in that event.
I would appreciate your comments on these or any other platforms for sprint triathlons.
Thanks beforehand.

probably these:

it does seem that pack riding (as done in itu tris) requires less raw power output than individual TT riding (as done non-drafting triathlons). frodeno is clever and it paid off for him. i am surprised more itu racers dont use the platforms yet. it does seem that for a bike course that does not have any major climbing, the platforms would be the best thing to use to eliminate a T2 delay and start one out on a great run.
