I have not ridden any tri bikes yet, I'm racing on my first and only road bike for this season. But my LBS does have an equinox in stock and I have looked it over several times.

my personal view is that Trek made it too much entry level, and by trying to hit the price point its a little lacking in what I'd expect from a tri bike - namely better components and wheels, and maybe not an alu frame either. I might also want a compact double because everything around me is hilly... this bike has just the std double which would be well suited to less varying courses.

Basically, my thinking on a tri bike is it better be a step up in almost all facets from my road bike, and I don't think the Equinox WSD is (I ride a Trek WSD bike so this is nothing against the brand at all).
