TT Bike for next season

richiemack

Hi guys Ive a proper training plan this winter, gonna get the miles up, and focus in on getting faster for next season, as a treat for all my hard work Ive decided to buy a TT bike now, which will be the carrot for next season. Before anyone jumps to conclusions Im not relying on the bike for getting better times, and am putting in the time training hard. I currently have a BH roaqd bike which I like quite alot. Im looking at two TT bikes both which come in around €2,500, price aside can anyone offer any opinions on either bike? experiences with either?
Cheers
Bike 1 is a BH

Do a test now. If you achieve a xx% improvement THEN get the bike.

regardless of when you get it there are better options out there. The felts are very dodgy in terms of robustness. design flaw with the baynonet fork

The Felt B12 2009 gets a very good review here. I believe Nigel has one going at a good price Richie.
