Carbon Triathlon Bike
how fast will i cycle?
currently i can cycle 19mph on a sturdy hybrid bike (bought for £270 4 years ago) for about 20 miles. Recently i bought a new triathlon racing bike (http://www.planet-x-bikes.co.uk/i/q/CBPXSPUL/stealth-pro-carbon-ultegra) worth £1100 and upgraded the tryes to fulcrum racer 3 clincher wheels (http://www.planet-x-bikes.co.uk/i/q/WPFUR3C/fulcrum-racing-3-clincher-wheels) at an extra cost of £150. How fast do you think i'll be cycling a 20mph route now?
just want your guess in mph and your background in cycling
You can try the bike calculator below, comparing using the top bars to the aero bars you will gain about 4 mph. Wind resistance requires more energy to overcome then anything else once you get around 12 mph.
