Bikes?

Hey Obrigato, welcome to the site and the sport.
I still use just one bike. A road bike and I throw on clip on aeros during season. i'd go that route, no need to get multiple bikes out of the gate. Felt has some reasonably priced road bikes, especially their aluminum frames. You'll pay a little more for Carbon which might be worth it if you're going to be riding a lot or tackling some of the longer distances.

A hybrid Tri/road bike is the way to go. Get clip ons like tribro suggested. You can find some deals on used bikes on ebay. Watch out for scams though. Check the sellers feedback and email the seller to ask questions about the bike before purchase.



I recently started getting interested in Triathlons. I'm in pretty good shape so I'm feeling good about the idea. However I was wondering about bikes. I want a new bike, to train on and race also. Do most people here have multiple bikes (commuting, competition, training?) Just wondering, but I don't feel like shelling out $$$ for multiple bikes. Thanks!
