I'm "just thinking" about getting a tri bike.
Shhhhh!!! don't let Mr. see this post!
I'm thinking about either the
Cervelo P2C Ultegra SL
http://www.nytro.com/ProductDetails....09CERVELO%5FP2
or the Trek TTX 9.5
http://www.trekbikes.com/us/en/bikes...x/equinoxttx95
The Cervelo is less $$... I like it better.... Is there any way to compare weights?
Any other thoughts? Has any one ridden both?

Cervelo is wildly popular right now. Don't hear much about Trek TT bikes with the Tri crowd. Hate the color of the Trek!
I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

When I was at Gilles in early fall, they had a road bike that had the green on it. At first glance, I thought it was ugly. The longer I looked at it the more I liked it. But I know nothing about the tri-bikes.

I know nothing about Tri bikes but in Tri-crazy Austin I never really see Trek but I see a lot of Cervelo. Could be because one of the big Tri shops sells Cervelo but none of them sell Trek, could be another reason. There is a huge Trek shop but it isn't Tri specific. I am sure the Tri girls will weigh in with some real information you can use.
Buy the Cervelo, it is cheaper, you like it better and Cervelos have that sexy bling factor right now. Sorry Mr Silver!
