Hi there,
I have just joined the website and I am in need of some help.
Having completed a few Olympic Triathlons I have now decided to do my first ironman next year. I want to upgarde my bike as the one I have is a bit old and crap!!!
I want to get a time trial bike for between £1500-£2000 sounds easy you say................I am 6ft 7" not so easy now is it!!!
Has anyone got any ideas as to where I can get such a bike
Any help would be much appreciated.
Many thanks,
David

    Try going to a frame builder, you should find a lot listed in most cycling mags.
    you may not get a full carbon frame but many will do part carbon or full titanium. i'm sure sabbath bicycles do custom sized full titanium.

    hope this helps

    Which Ironman?

    Where are you based? If you're on London then the Evans on the Cut near waterloo station is trying to get rid of its 09 models - has got odd sizes, i.e for very short people (me) or for very tall people (you). Might be worth a bash. There is another option, but i'll get told off for suggesting it ...

    Trek is making their TTX's in a super large size next year (64cm?). Really great looking bikes with very low drag numbers. I guess it depends on whether or not you fit their proportions, but I'm 6'3 and needed a longer than average reach for my height, and the Trek fit great.
