    I'm looking to buy my first time trials bike for triathlons. ?

    Does anyone have any suggestions. I'm looking for something under $2K that doesn't suck.

    Thanks and kisses!

    I imagine you've already had a road bike with clip-on aerobars, and ready for the next step up...

    Best strategy is to stick with aluminum frames, I believe carbon TT bikes would start around 3K. Plus the aluminum frames are stiffer than cheaper carbon frames.

    This one from trek looks pretty decent, the frame is very aero as well:
