Finding The Right Time Trial Bike For You

The right time trial bike can make all the difference in the world more than how cool it may look. Being on a great frame, having the proper arm position and comfort and overall position on the bike can feel amazing. When you put it all together and you are riding correctly you can find yourself in a comfortable position but also minimizing wind drag. 

Believe it or not your bike only accounts for 10 percent of the surface area that the wind hits. The other 90 percent is you. Having good position on a frame that fits you correctly is more important that spending an insane amount of money on an expensive frame that doesn't help you to go any faster. 

Another important tip is flat time trials and how aerodynamics count for much more than you would expect. The lighter you are doesn't necessarily equal a faster time. TT bikes are actually heavier than most road bikes because they often have a thicker and wider frame. 

When you are choosing a bicycle position and comfort are always important but you want to make sure you can adjust the front end which a lot of riders fail to do before making a purchase. The front end of the TTR-8 for example was engineered to be as stiff and clean as possible and while also being adjustable. 

The trick was to do this and still provide a time trial frame that was suitable for riders of all shapes and sizes. We did this by keeping the top tube length shorter than a traditional time trial frame, but only slightly, which has most riders looking like a speeding bullet on a bike. 

This bike was not designed with any particular group of riders in mind. Some companies, such as Cervelo, design frames specifically for courses such as the Hawaii Ironman which was flat and windy. They are great bikes, but Stradalli has a different customer in mind. The Phantom 2 and the TTR-8 were design to meet every rider’s needs, whatever their situation may be, to ensure they achieve the best possible position. A good bike should be a bike that helps the rider perform well under any circumstance.

Having a great frame with quality is paramount for any rider but never assume that in order to pay that you have to pay top dollar. Look for the right bike for you, not the most expensive. That's where you will find the best time trial bike for you to race on.

Why? Because it uses a removable carbon “mask” to hide and protect the front brake caliper which maximizes air flow around the head tube of the frame and makes it super aero. This drastically eliminates wind resistance. The new front end design provides the lowest possible amount of frontal surface area. This bike literally turns you into a bullet!
