    Since my bike was stolen before Christmas and Santa did not bring me one, I am starting to look at options for new bike.
    I cycle as part of triathlons, as opposed to pure road cycling. TBH, i don't know if i am looking for a road bike with tri settings or a TT bike. I am keeping my ears wide opened for advices. Budget around €2000 max

    I would like to hear from people riding a Planet X Stealth Pro Carbon SRAM Rival Carbon Time Trial Bike, pros and cons. Thanks

    I have a Stealth bought in Nov 2009. It's OK although I've only ridden it a handful of times.

    The most important thing is to get a bike that fits really well and is comfortable, either by buying from a shop that can fit you on the bike right first time or by buying something second hand and spending the money on swapping components (bars, stem, saddle) to get it right with some experimentation. Fitting TT bikes is not particularly easy or obvious.

    Mine is vaguely for sale (size large) if you're interested, based in west Dublin.

    I would be interested in having a look at your bike if that's ok with you, more to see how they are built than to buy as i think large frame is defo too big for me and i am more looking at new ones at this stage. I am also based in west dublin. I'll be in touch by pm next week.
