    Great video! Lots of people just like to have expensive gear without understanding anything about it. In my opinion you need to have a training bike if you can’t afford having 2 bikes, therefore Road is a better option then once you have trained enough and you still can afford only 1 bike then you upgrade to a TT. Perfect world 1 road 1 TT. Thanks a lit guys great video!

    It seems like TT (or triathlon) bikes are supreme in every way... so why don't all cyclists use them?!

      TTs are very demanding at the low back and knee level. In addition, they are difficult to handle, almost impossible when riding in the bunch; this is the reason they are not allowed in road races.

      @@xyz123-n9m Thanks for this information! I assume then that, considering the rules are changing so all triathlon races are draft-legal, than (as aerobars will be illegal) the style of TT/ triathlon bikes will change too? (e.g. loosing the aerobars that will become illegal)?
