Hi all-

Looking to purchase my first Tri-bike, have been riding a Giant OCR 0 Elite for the past 10 years.  Completed the Vineman Half Aquabike last summer (placed 3rd in AG) and feel that I have finally "earned" a upgrade.  Have been spending way too much time analyzing options - looking for feedback/advise from those that have raced with the P2 or P3.

Did you race w/stock wheels or upgrades?

Any reasons to buy the 2013 model rather than 2012?

Leaning towards the P3 - have a long torso.

Thanks!

They do fit quite differently, the P2 and the P3... both may work, but it's fairly common that if the P2 fits, then the head tube is simply too short on the P3, and if the P3 fits, you can't get low enough on the P2...

Other than that, they're both good bikes.
