Today is all about saving watts and energy on the course but gaining as much as 10 minutes in your Ironman bike split. This is basically technical ways to become a better cyclist. We look at riding bumpy roads, preparing better for the course you’re racing, and how to get better at handling. We also look at why your bike fit may be costing you major watts and how a more comfortable position can get them back. We talk about deep wheel rims and when you should or shouldn’t use them. We get into short course vs. long course approach. We talk about tires and the right PSI, along with how you can find what’s perfect for you and your bike.
