    Ahggg.....this will be my first 70.3. I live in the area and just did an Olympic at Lake Cahuilla. I can't emphasize how cold the desert mornings can be. We often hit the mid-30's. There's often a wind also. We had a wind on the recent swim I did, and it kicked up the surface water a bit. I thrive swimming into current, but a lot of athletes suffered in it. I didn't run the golf course, we ran twice around the lake. But a friend of mine advised that the run over the golf course is very tough. We'll be running up and down little cement sidewalk undulations the whole time, which can be pretty draining. I'm going to run it a few times before the race.

    Unbelievable improvements for me. Went from 170mm to 160mm on my road bike. I sit more symmetrical on the saddle; I sit right in the pocket of my saddle. No more shifting forward/backwards. Much more power as well with overall comfort.

  • @jibranjawaid

    Lovely bike, i have a 2017 s5 thinking about getting a TT bike and just came across this video of yours... Would you say tribars on an S5 would be enough should i go the TT route... ? Have been looking into P3 frames would like to build one over a time period... P.s. what kind of avg speed were you able to get out of this setup for 40k / half iron / iron distances would be nice to know set wattage too if you remember... ?

    • @bendeal3516
      @bendeal3516 Год назад

      The S5 is still a very fast frame, but the main advantage of a TT frame is going to be enabling you to get into the proper position, generally significantly more forward with saddle closer to the bottom bracket and further over the front wheel. Something like the new TriRig Sigma One stem could also be an interesting option for your s5, as it would give all the advantages of a modern aerobar setup just from the stem! The year I raced this at Indian Wells 70.3 I averaged 276w for 25.1mph. That was before the course got changed to being a bit faster!

    • @jibranjawaid
      @jibranjawaid Год назад

      @@bendeal3516 Great wattage and speed! That's awesome, I have managed to do 40kms (25miles) on flat but windy course at an AVG speed of 36kph (22.3 mph) on the S5 with the profile design aero bars and the sl70 Zipp bar at 205w... I will look into your recommended stem, have heard good reviews about tririg brakes... Cheers and ride on!

      Like an airplane wing, the leading edge of the spoke should be rounded, while the trailing edge is sharper. If not, less aero benefit.

      @bensummerdeal9528 2 года назад

      It means T1 and T2 are in different locations. So the bike is a point to point rather than a loop that comes back to where the swim was. This mostly just means the day before is a little more involved because you have to go to two locations to check in/check your bike. Otherwise, everything else is pretty much the same!
