At one time I would have really liked those bikes, but not now - Those with, in fact, a lot of modern top end bikes just look ugly to me.

Nah, I'll keep with the more understated lines of more classic looking designs thanks.

Ah but you will see lack of dinner plates on the back wheel.

That big cassette is useless for efficient TT'ing

The set up [IMO] on this bike makes no sense, having said that, I have seen the very same thing in hilly TT's when the competitor believes an aero position coupled with a disc wheel and wide range cassette will make them fast, relatively speaking, it does not. You will always gain more by riding a lighter set up on climbs than you will lose on the downhills. Fortunately for us, quite a lot of folk don't seem to understand this :smile:.
Cervelo certainly know what they are doing, a new TT bike is produced virtually every year and prices rise correspondingly, in part driven by well heeled triathalopes.
 
I wouldn't be at all surprised if has gone through all the manifestations of the Cervelo TT bike, I see from the link he is riding a P5, sooo last year. Being a triathlete and a good bike rider are not necessarily the same thing.

In fact from a recent study I seem to recall that the bike section of a triathlon was the least important of the three disciplines, and that the running bit was the most significant.......
