almost spring... bike help again...
posted about it in the fall...
<a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/lrqc/msgs/117796.phtml">click</a>
now looking for a road specific bike for triathlons; no mountain bikes. found a few triathlon packages that had most of the gear i need including a Scott S60 for $700 shipped or a Felt Z1000 w/ aerobars for $950. id know they have the worst components, but are they even worth it?
if i could, i'd rather spend the $700, but want to make sure i get a bike that won't break down on me after 1000 miles or so.

Re: almost spring... bike help again...
Always had good luck with Felts. That being said - do you have a bike shop that you are looking at? To me, a good shop almost as important (if not more so) than the bike. They can recommend race-specific equipment recommendations, fit you, etc.

do you know what size?
my boss has two QR carbon tri bikes he'd like to sell. One is a 54c, the other a 56c I believe. They were literally only used for two races and both spec'd really well, and can be had in your budget.
