Need help with my first tri bike selection

I am 38m, 5"8"… Father of three who has just completed the first year of tri with 2 half im. I intend to complete a full in a few years being that The Lubbock half kicked my butt. I completed these on a cannondale r400 (the basics) with clipless pedals and aero bars. I am ready for a tri bike. Looking for something $<2000 but able to be riden comfortably on a full ironmanAny suggestions would greatly help me being there are so many choices. Thanks Fran

Leaning toward cervelo 9 versus dual? I just don’t know

Lots of choices at that price especially if also considering second hand. If going for a new bike have a look at this one.
