Congrats I was watching the race off and on. Had to watch the ending at midnight as well. Sounds like it was coooooold!

Sorry I never updated. Love LOVE the Javelin Fara bike. It got me through both a Sprint and International Tri last summer, and I'm working on my second International this summer.
I need to take...
Just wanted to let you know it arrived quickly, and is perfect. Thanks...
To everyone else: She sent quickly and was great to deal with so don't hesitate to buy from her. :)
I just ordered one too. I'm hoping it's wide enough. Anyway I'll let you guys know what I think in a few weeks.
Is this still available? Any way you'd come down just slightly in price? If so send me a PM. I just bought a saddle tonight so I can't spend too much but I'd REALLY really like to try out a...
Thanks for the help everyone. I went with the size L and it fits although it's quite snug at the moment which is perfect because I'm still losing weight it should fit perfectly in a few months.
I...
Hi girls - The Javalin bike came. I need to get it assembled and I need some pedals. I want SPD with a platform... Will Crank Brothers Mallet C work? I found a deal that comes with the pedals and...
Yeay Poss! Come join us!
I tried it and got a 49/50 but it was self-measured not sure how well I managed. The bike I ordered was a 51 (smallest it came in) so I'm hoping with a bit of tweaking it will be ok. Thanks for...
Thanks for posting the pictures. I think I like the Thumb button concept better - less confusion that way, but we will see how I feel when the bike gets here.
They were supposed to ship it today...
Love it.
Not super accurate but a fun toy. Some of us TE members have a Nike+ challenge going on right now. If your concerned about accurate and have the money you can get a GPS type system but...
Yeah I'm gambling on the fit a bit since I have to order it over the phone. When I do my own measurements I come somewhere between a 50cm and a 52cm and the bike is a 51cm. (I'm 5'5)
Do you think this one would have been better ($449) It has Shimano... and it's a tri bike (I'm doing 2 tris this summer)

Argh!
I found a really really good inventory sale look you made me go by a campy type bike now.
Javelin Fara - Javelin 7005 butted aluminum frame with carbon seatstays and 11/8" Hammerhead...
OK, so if 105's are basically what I want or better... what Campy level would that translate to do you think?
Thanks everyone.
Guess I'll have to locate a local swim shop and try some on. Something tells me my el-cheepo ones aren't going to make it more then a few weeks in the water since I'm going 3x a...
2200 = Matchbox?
:)
Thanks both of you. That was helpful. Going to try and find a good book and read read read.
I was wondering if someone could either give me a quick run down or point me in the direction of a web-page that gives a run down of the grades of bike components for road bikes. (Sora, Tiagra, 105,...
I'm a new re-learner swimmer. My current googles are a $5.00 pair from the discount store and I'm looking to buy something to get me through a few races this summer. Any suggestions? How about types...
Thanks I have some slicks and tubes I'm about to order sometime this week but Geeze you're really making a girl want to break down and buy a new ride!
Maybe I'll start poking around the local...
Thanks I decided to pass for now. I didn't want to spend 700+ $$$ and risk it not fitting. Need to get sized before I shop, but the problem is it's not consistent from bike to bike so I'm not sure...
I'm looking at a used cannondale tri bike.
The Frame size is 50cm I am 5'5. I know the best thing to do is go get measured but I'm kinda on a time crunch since it's a used one. Is this approx....
Thanks. That helps tons!
Off to go find some tubes.
I need to put slicks on my MTB for Tri trainging/racing until I can pickout /afford a road bike.
My tires say 26 x 2.00 on the side.
will these slicks fit?
...
Hey it could be worse. I've lost almost 90lbs and not only do I still have that but I also have the excess skin just hanging about. Attractive huh?
You might not be over weight but you could still...
