As your bike sits on the rack in T1 in a race (race wheels, all the gear, all the goodies), how much is it worth (what you paid for it, not what it costs retail)?

Race setup: Felt DA 08, Ultegra components, FSA SLK carbon crank, Hed vantage eight aero bar with S bends, wheels - Hed Jet 90 laced on PT 2.4 + disc cover, front Hed 3, Koobi Tri saddle, Bontrager aero bottle, tektro RX5.0 carbon brake levers, profile carbon bottle cage mounted on aero bars... you do the math

I did pay much less thanks to sponsors discounts!

How much is it worth and How much did it cost are really different.
Which do you mean?

Like all together with components and all?

The amount that my bike and components (shoes, pedals, seat, etc.) set me back is about...$2700.

Haha. I'm gonna be laughed out of Kona...

Cervelo Dual

1300 when I bought it,,,
won a sweet new aero bar from here.
$200 - upgraded brakes
400 - used H3 front wheel,, (shipping included)
$800- Power tap rear wheel
75 - disc cover

so not quite 2800... but it's not the bike that slows me down it's me,, actually I didn't realize that my wheels are nearly as much as the bike

Heh, at The Prouty last weekend, there were around 3,000 cyclists doing the ride. I was there riding my mountain bike on the walk portions as safety. Even my partner with a tricked out mtn ride was NOT worried about leaving his bike! Kinda nice being around a lot of high dollar machines, when yours isn't...

Well as it sits on the T1 rack...PRICELESS!

Not because has a ton of value...but because it is my ride.  Without it...I go back to just being a runner, not a triathlete.

It's not "important", it's just a poll for fun

Was able to buy it at a pro discount as part of the ZOOT Ultra Team Sponsorship, so it was really inexpensive.
