so what are your opinions on the s3 vs the noah? any data? what about any other nice aero road frames? im a junior and doing draft legal races and non draft legal races, so i would like a bike that would be good for both, thanks in advance to any replies!
I’m on this and loving it:
.
thats a pretty nice lookin ride you got there haha ill add the archon to my list…
S3! I love mine. Use it primarily as my road bike, but raced it at Escape from Alcatraz with the seatpost flipped and with extensions. Ride is super smooth. From what I hear the Noah is also stiff, but not as smooth.
s3 for sure. i’m in the same boat as you, and am in the process of getting the s3. perfect bike for draft-legal races
what about any other nice aero road frames?
You should look at the Felt AR and Blue AC1 too…
x2 on the AC1.
I don’t think you can go wrong either way. When you are choosing between too very fine bikes, you aren’t going to lose. I have a Noah and love it. I’m very happy with it. Yes, it is stiff and that’s why I love it. I’ve done 3-4 100+ mile rides on it, including IMSG and have no complaints. I’ve never ridden a Cervelo S3 so I can’t speak to it or offer a comparison. I’m sure it’s great. You’ll just have to ride them both and see what works better for you. Not bad options!
