So I've more or less decided on getting a tri-bike for use as TT. Its slightly more relaxed than a full blown TT's.

I test rode a guru chrono'alu bike. tad big but they are all custom. It felt smooth, didn't feel jumpy. Felt like a solid bike without any noticiable flex in the frame. Like the feel just not my size for the test ride.

I've tried QR seduza on a mag trainer and also Cervelo P2 on a mag trainer. Both of them felt pretty good. Didn't get a chance to take it on a road... I'm sure they ride smooth without the jumpy or twitchy feel.

Also looking at Orbea and Kuota but... I'm starting to get a feeling like at this level of bikes, what really matter is my leg power, weight etc. My weight isn't a limiting factor like 230lb weight limit for guru or 180lb?? for my pedals etc. And minor adjustments can be made with stem length, crank length... and even seat position can be adjusted so frame geomery is all pretty much the same. You can adjust the seat position enuf that effectice seat tube angle can be made to look like any other.

The thing is with guru, I can have pick and choose my color scheme seduza I'm not too fond of nor Caliente (like the older color scheme) and P2 color scheme is okay kuota so so...

So I guess I can spend extra thousand to get my color choice with guru or save a thousand by going with P2 ...

What is your take on TT frames/bike at this level? Do you think its just personal appeal? or do you think there is still some merit in the frames?

I still like ti frames but carbon seems more readily available these days.

so my current interests are:
guru carbino (I think that is what its called)
Cervelo P2
Orbea
Kuota
QR

any personal experiences on these bikes?? Any of these would cause my diet to be on PB&J sandwitches for the foreseeable future.
