I’m into my 2nd year and it’s taken all season for me to decide I am going to buy a tri bike. Assuming I can’t find a killer deal, is it too late in the season to by a bike. My next event is in 2 weeks and in the best of worlds I’d only have a week to get accustomed to the bike. More likely it won’t be and I will be left with 2 September races. Should I wait until next year so I can begin my off season training building a base on my new bike. I now ride a road bike with clip ons. My position is not aggressive so it will be a BIG change.
Probably a bit too late to be switching bikes for this year’s races (especially if they are A races) but it is definitely a good time to start looking for deals. Then you have the fall and winter to really dial in your position on the new bike for next season.
Whats the distance. Anything longer that an olympic and you should wait
Take your time and watch bonktown.com I have seen several Kuota TT bikes going there for `1200 bucks that is a great deal IMHO
