Hi All,
Im just looking for some advice from any of you out there.... Im looking to purchase all the equipment I need as a newcomer to this sport, I am in two minds if i should shop around for all the stuff or simply buy a package from somewhere... I have read on here that if looking for a bike then buying a last years model would save alot of cash...
so what do people think on this..... seperate? or package?

welcome to the forum and the world of triathlon. being a newbie myself i took the route of purchasing items separately purely due to cash flow, although managed to get a package on the bike (bike, pedals & shoes) though.
Most packages will include a wet suit but seeing as i wanted to have a season of pool based events (swimming is my major weakness) this was another reason for not getting a package deal.
If you have a reasonable amount of cash available and your going to get straight into open water swimming I guess the package deal would be the better option.
Enjoy
I think im going to buy a 2007 model bike, get me a bargain, if i can. Was thinking about Focus Cayo....
