Subject: Cycling Question

I have a question with no real answer. I need advice on how much time I am giving away.

I currently ride a Giant Deft 3 road bike with clip on aero bars.

I am looking to purchase a Specialized Transition Comp.

How much faster do you think I could be get?

I ride average 20-21 mph 20 miles with factory wheels on my Giant.

Sorry to say the obvious, but I think you 'answered' your own question.

 

ETA:  But have fun with the new bike!

You'll get a bit more out of the TT just by aerodynamics. You'll won't feel as burnt on the run either or take as long to find your land legs. Hilly courses you may not gain much at all. Fact is you always could use another bike.

Not sure on the time you will save, but you might save some energy and pain with the new bike and therefore run faster or more efficiently.
