New Whip
My generous teammate Jimmy Hargrove let me have his former tt bike, a P3SL. He moved on to a P3 carbon. I built it up as a fixed gear and rode it to work today to start getting the fit right. Pinched the cranks and saddle from my fixie. I got some Profile T2 bars on the thing and they are multi adjustible which is great. Reach, angle, even the tilt of the armrests can be changed. The frameset is slippery as can be in the wind. There is really noticeably less resistance. It is even pretty comfortable. That can be important on a tt bike, because the high pressure you tend to run on the tires can really beat you up on a rough road. Also very stiff when adding power. Anyway the fit may take some time so I won't be burning up the roads right away, but over time I'm sure I can ride some very fast times. Hopefully I'll be well fitted to it for the district tt championship in about a month.
