It's designed to be a tri bike; I'd build it up that way. Aero helps everyone at every speed..and it's fun!

Litespeed Saber - Odd Question
To disable ads, please log-in.
I received a gift of a litespeed saber ti frame (circa 2003) that is my size (47cm). Lucky, right?
I now need to build it up. The Litespeed Saber is a triathlon frame. I do triathlons, but I am not remotely fast enough for it to matter if I ride aero or not. I am debating whether I could build the frame as a road bike (no aero bars, built with drops, brifters, etc.), rather than a TT/tri bike.
Is this doable? Is it worthwhile or should I plan to build it as a tri bike?Not all that wonder are lost.

If you're not comfortable with flat base bars, then put on drop bars, but also throw on some aerobars.
