Hello all,
Just a quick question....
Im looking to purchase a bike for training and triathlons so my question is.....
Is it better to go straight to a Tri bike or start on a Road bike?
Any opinions are appreciated.
thanks

Obviously it would be ideal to have both!! But in most situations one bike has to cope with training and racing. Again, look at the kind of races you'll be doing and see which one suits you, or do what most people do and get a road bike and put some decent aero bars on it.
Good luck!!
I have just been given a hand me down bike..... an old CSK road bike, decent nick so that settles that. Im thinking I will use this bike to get my triathlon 'life' started and then upgrade to either a higher specced road bike or tri bike in the future. I really like to focus road bikes and love the Felt tri/TT bikes....
thanks
