Bike that will save much energy for runs This is an urban legend; riding steep in an aerodynamic position does not save energy for the run. More aggressive frame An aggressive frame is one that is designed to be riden very low in front; typically this will require a steep seattube angle (usually around 78* ) along with a short headtube. However, these frames are not for everyone, witness the number of athletes on a P3 with an positive rise stem and huge stack of spacers. Bike that gives intermeadiate or higher handling skills I have no idea what this means. One that is optimal for IMWI and many other tris in the Wisconsin midwest area Any tribike will work for pretty much any course as long as you have the correct gearing for your abilities. Good luck in your search, Shane |
