Felt B2, B12 or Cervelo P2

I was fitted for my tri bike recently, and was told to go for either Cervelo P2, Felt B2, or B12 based on my fit.
Is there any other bikes I should look into with similar geometry?
And if I were to go for the 2012 bikes (not 2013), which one of the above will prevail in your opinion? I noticed B2 comes with Dura Ace Di2...

Selling 2011 CERVELO P2

Hi there,

I'm selling a gorgeous Cervelo p2 2011 tribike. Size is 54. Under 1000 miles. Was purchased in November 2011. Bike is in excellent condition! Reason for selling - going away for the summer and intend to upgrade and stay within the Cervelo family when back in September. Was purchased at Citybikes and serviced at rb cycles. Both of these shops can vouch for this bike.

Cervelo P2 or P3?

I am in my second season of competing in triathlons. I have been using my Tarmac to train and a friend's P2 for my races and it's time to shell out for my own tri-bike. I did a retul fitting last year and the results have me using 4 spacers in the front of the 58cm P2 and a 90 mm stem. I am 6'2.5", 195 lbs, 34" inseam, and have pretty normal arm length. My LBS is trying to sell me a 58cm P3, but I am not sure if it is the correct fit for me, despite it being an absolutely awesome bike.

Cervelo P2 or P3

Any recommendations on which to get a P2 or P3? I hear the P3 is more aggressive in the position. Just trying to decide if the extra $550 is worth it for the Ultegra P3.

I'm 6'4.5" and 215lbs, just getting back into Tri. Cost isn't a big issue with a bike, more after value and fit.

Goals
2012 - just a couple sprint races while building up my training base
2013 - HIM
2014 - Full IM

Cervelo test rides; goodbye aluminum?

Had good test ride of a couple Cervelos at expo preceding the Philly Tri this weekend. Although lots of high-end bikes were on display, Cervelo was the only brand offering rides; so, having never ridden one, I jumped at the chance to try a P3 (carbon/DuraAce) and a P1 (aluminum/Ultegra). Both had Zipp wheels. Unsurprisingly, I preferred the P3, the only bike I’ve ridden where it seemed absolutely natural/comfortable to get and remain in the aero position.

Cervelo alone won't make you faster

Not to upset all the owners who who own these bikes, but I have 3 friends who all own p2c's. They honestly think that just by owning these bikes they will be able to out bike the rest of the competition. After seeing each others results they said, "think how much faster you would be with a cervelo." I beat them by 4 minutes in are last bike split and with a kestrel Talon. I told them, "FYI the fastest bike aero dynamically is a beam bike and that UCI banned them because they were too fast.

Felt vs Cervelo vs Giant Bike purchase....

I am somewhat new to the biking community and would like some advice and input on a new bike purchase i would like to make. I currently have a 2008 Trek Madone 5.2 and am looking to get a new bike as this one feels heavy and sluggish. I am looking to buy either a Felt AR4, a Cervel S2, or a Giant TCR Advanced. Any siggestions or input from anyone who has owned or ridden these? I appreciate it alot !

P3C + Adamo saddle = No hydration

So I installed the Adamo racing saddle which I love. The problem is I effectively lost my bottle cage in the process. Since I need the saddle to be installed in the front hole on the seat post it makes attachment of my Profile Design cage, which installs into the seat, impossible.

I was wondering what my alternatives were? Is there a cage system that attaches to these holes?

My bike progression

I was writing a lengthy reply to "Your reason for try-ing" and somehow decided to look at the pictures... I thought this could be interesting for some. This is the progression of the bikes I used in triathlon.
