Felt B12 gone for warranty assessment to CA. Rode Cannondale Six with Profile Air Stryke extensions, HED3's and Lazer Aero Helmet...if felt good. I don' know that I would have been faster on Tri Bike...It may be that I'm lower on the C-Dale. I have to reach an extra ~2" for the straw..that could be it. Would like to re-race the B12 in similar conditions to gauge
