Sounds like we lost the well-loved “pics of your tri bike” thread in the new forum swap.
I’ll start fresh here.
Trek Speed Concept (Size XL)
Princeton Carbonworks (Wake/Blur)
Wove Saddle
Evolve Ergo Mono Cockpit
Big fan of the Evolve cockpit thus far. I machined a piece to move the top bottle back 40mm since my chin was hitting it in the stock position, but otherwise very happy with the added reach it allows in the SC frame.

How’d you get that thing to stand up like that?
Not my bike but I’d put money on it being one of these, you can kind of see it in the second picture.
That’s the one.
So, I’m just gonna point out that most pictures I see are in front of the garage or the side of the house, and here you just roll up with Switzerland or something in the background. Well played. Well played. We can spot the road cyclists vs the trainer triathletes!
This is, technically speaking, my tri-bike 
Last month I upgraded to 1x11 and ditched the old dual control brifters. She comes in at about 25 lbs as you see it here, although I’ll probably pick up some wider rubber for it in the spring.
You ride what you have. I’ve seen people out riding MTB bikes, fat tire bikes, classic steel tube bikes. Whatever suits you, or you have at your disposal. Hell, my first couple tris, I rode a medium frame (too big for me) CAAD 4. I have worked my way up through a couple other older road bikes to now riding a 2015 Shiv and absolutely love it.
The funny thing is, to a lot of people on this forum, that Shiv is ancient technology. But to the lay person, that bike still looks cutting edge high tech. Regardless of which, it fits me better than any other bike I have and it’s plenty fast enough for my old ass.
I’m waiting on a new-to-me seat post and I’ll post pics. 
This is also, technically, one of my tri bikes. Converted to city bike / coffee shop duties. Gold chain for extra street cred. Do the kids still say “cred”? I’m old….
I believe this was an XTERRA/cross-tri flex, not one of utility.
Maybe she was taking a dig at how old and obsolete my mountain bike is. Suits the rider though (old and obsolete)…
Here’s my everyday ride - a Plasma 3
!65mm cranks, 25mm front tire, 28mm shoehorned into the rear. For racing TT’s it has a deep front, a rear disc wheel with a 12-23 cassette, and a 1xfront 56T chainring. The tools/spares are in the triangular shaped bottle. The “elbow cups” are also from an old water bottle. The one real concession to speed is the front brake. I’ve experimented with a few that are more aero, but since I ride it everyday in all kinds of weather (and my bones are 78 years old), I’ve determined that nothing beats the stopping power and easy adjustability of a dual pivot with Kool-Stop Salmon pads (besides a disc?). Nonetheless, I’ve tried to minimize the exposed cable.
Not at all. You’re out there doing it, on whatever you have. That’s more than what 99.5% of the population can claim. Hell, the fact that you’re getting it done on older, “obsolete” equipment just means you’re hard core!
That’s very cool. That looks like a set of Profile Sonic Strykes, I have a set sitting unused that I would like to run, but they’re too narrow on my base bar. That’s a very clean setup, what bar is that?
