Subject: WTB: Beginner Tri/TT Bike Hello all, I'm in the midst of training for my first tri inSeptember, and I'd like to at least have a tri bike that I could train with for the last two weeks, so my schedule is flexible. What I'm looking for: --Sub-$1000. Perhaps a Fuji Aloha, QRoo Kilo, Kuota K-Factor, or even a Motobecane Nemesis or Nemesis Pro. I'd prefer to spend about $800. A used Felt S32 would be my dream bike!! (at this price point ) --Beginner tri bike for someone who is 5'11" (I use a 56cm Felt Z90 road, for reference ) so I think I could fit between 54-57cm frames --I like the bullhorn/aero bar combo or a tri-specific bar. no drop bars please! --bar-end brakes and shifters --Aluminum at the minimum, carbon would be a plus (but keep in mind my bidget is $1000 ) --newer models wth aero frames --76-78 degree seat angle --700c wheels --Location somewhere around VA would be a plus, but I don't mind it being shipped so long as the condition stated is as accurate as possible! Thanks so much guys! Edited by pfadul 2009-08-04 4:51 PM
