Is it all Dura-Ace running gear? The cranks look like old school Dura ace? Either way, I'd pay $5000 CDN but no more
I feel the ceramicspeed pulleys are a total waste though and i wouldn't buy them myself. I'm wondering if I'm just better off spending around 2k to 3k on a di2 tri bike with just regular alloy wheels instead of carbon. I think price wise carbon wheels are the least cost effective.

I feel like my riding position is good, and I had my bike fitted to me.

I'm looking to get a tri bike and came across a local ad for a bike for $5500 CDN. or 4204 USD. I didn't realize that a TT bike + a good TT position will save anywhere between 20 to 30 minutes over a full ironman course. That is absolutely mental. Was also listening to the trainerroad podcast about drag coefficient and again, you could be putting out 220 watts approximately with a really aero setup or putting out 300 watts with a road bike and be going the same speed. Frustrating as I put out 260 watts for about 5.5 hours on my ironman bike leg (very hilly course at whistler), and i feel i was moving like molasses.

Stradalli Phantom II frame
CeramicSpeed Oversized Pulleys
Zipp Super 9 Carbon Clincher Disc Rear Wheel
Zipp 808 Firecrest Front Wheel
di2 shifters
good value or no? overall thoughts?

I lost 45 pounds this off season and haven't ridden outside in a while but the trainer has been my friend/nemesis. Hoping the hills are a little easier than last season. Winter is trying to make it's last stand where I live. Bring o the heat of summer.

Thanks again for the info it was really helpful.

If road, your fit isn't what you think it is. You might need a longer (or different angled) stem, seat adjustment, etc. Road bike shouldn't generate this problem as you should be constantly changing hand positions. Perhaps your handlebars are angled weird and you are leaning too much in a weird angle as a result?
If a MTB, you might simply be gripping too hard with your left hand. I get the same issue when I do 2-3 hour MTB rides. I have to remind myself not to squeeze so damn hard when I don't need to

Don't know what it is but Tri/TT bikes make me truly irritated when I look at them...They remind me of Ricers with big Spoilers.
The thing is, I want to start doing Tris....
How weird is it to see people riding Road Bikes at Tris?

Looking at giant defys on Craigslist, wtf is with these base models with triple front chainrings? Groce.
Any good aluminum Fuji's or other roadie bikes to consider used? My steel beast is getting old and I ride the fuk out of it. Want something stiffer, used, and half decent.

this is such an expensive hobby.
thinking my next upgrades gonna be saddle.
the giant escape stock saddle is too soft and pudgy...its called giant connect comfort i think..i guess they designed it for short distances with no padded shorts.
i am realizing its not gonna be ideal as i hit 25+ miles...any suggestions on what to look for when choosing saddle?
this giant contact looks suitable for longer distances:

I'm going to spend this weekend doing a teardown, degreasing and greasing key areas. Probably buy some upgrades and install them. Erik's putting his bike or a bike he owns up for sale.

Nick's a cool guy though. And I love messing with you because you're a funny guy. Oh, and the green shirt looks fine. I usually wear a green shirt at the gym. Let's me blend in with the fake ferns.

Seems as though I've found a beautiful "like new" defy on craigslist. 105 group, original everything, even the original tires look new. dork disc still on there. Owner claims it was ridden only a few times and I believe it. Hoping to scoop it up for $800. We shall see tomorrow!
I deserve an updated roadie shredder lol. This 1991 dinosaur has treated me well the last 4 years, but I should move onward & upward.
Fingers crossed.

Recommendations for a flat bar bike with at least 8 speeds, internal cable routing? Bike needs to be black, just a personal preference. I was looking at the Jamis Coda but doesn't have internal cables. Also I like the look of the surly crosscheck, but again same story with the cables. I feel like in 2018 this should be a standard feature.
ETA: This Trek Zektor 3 might fit the bill
