TT bike build challenge

Whereabouts in the UK? Been looking for a cheap SC frame

22

I can’t remember, just search on the marketplace and I’m sure it will come up

23

Had a quick look but it doesn’t allow nationwide search which is annoying, I could do without a new frame turning up anyway I guess :man_shrugging:t2:

This is the TT/Tri bike I’ve built over the last couple years. Bike without wheels or chainset ~£600 mostly used, rear carbon Corima disc £200 and HED H3 £120 with powermeter shared between bikes. Not a super bike but the position is good which is the important thing for me.

:weary::weary: can’t find it either.

Hope you’re not teasing

2.5 is crazy short, I’d spend all my efforts on getting the highest 5min power possible. Borrow a bike from someone you know and instead spend those £1000 on the perfect training leading up to the race.

I agree with the training got to dial in the power and stick to a plan. Also training for crit. Following trainer road base at the moment. As with out the foundation I think all else will fail.

Then plan to do 5min effort (s) just after warm up in morning easy session. Then specifics in the evening. This will simulate race day.

I already know I have a 6 second gap to bridge to a team mate which looks massive over 2.5k when looking at achieving sub 3 mins.

Still it wouldnt be worth it without the challenge.

Search “trek/spesh” in the marketplace search and make sure your location includes London

Found but not surprised both sold. Thanks for pointing them out though some one bagged a bargain.
