What bike is the best for a tri athlete?!?! Help pLease!?
there are two options:
a Felt Z90 for $ 769 from a local bike store
or a bike bought online for $735, with the following specs:
Frame: Reynolds 520 double-butted High Grade Steel with eyelets & rack braze-ons
Fork: Reynolds Ouzo Comp Carbon Fiber / Aluminum Steerer
Headset: FSA Threadless for Cane Creek
Crankset: Truvativ IsoFlow triple 52/42/30T
Bottom Bracket: Truvativ sealed
Pedals: Alloy Road with Toe Clips and Straps
Front Derailleur: Shimano 4400 for Triple
Rear Derailleur: Shimano NEW 105 for Triple
Shifters: Shimano 4400 for 27-speed
Cassette/Freewheel: Shimano 9-speed 12-25T
Chain: Z-9000
just wondering if the second option is superior than a felt bike! please help.. thanks!
The Felt quality is beyond reproach.
Both bikes are outfitted similarly and the difference between the aluminum and cro-moly frame in weight is negligible. I personally would prefer the aluminum.
For the felt Z90; as it isn't a Tri bike, you would want to make a couple up grades such as aero bars, change the tires from the Zaffiro's to Vittoria Open Corsa or Michelin Pro 2 in 23's. They are the fastest (least rolling resistance) tires. I would see if the Felt could be bought with a double front instead of the triple.
