My power falls within about 5% of where it is on a roadbike so I call that good. Just stay in the aero bars everywhere and commit!

This is a good subject. How close can I expect to see on my TT bike. I am totally new to this thing. Should I expect to be able to see within 95% of my usualy power over a 20 minute effort? 90%? I...

Question on bike fits: I am pretty close(or so I think) on my new to me TT bike. I can be comfortable on it, but making power seems harder than I would like. Do you guys go to a regular bite fitter...

That's a good point. I was originally thinking something in a 56 or slightly smaller, but found this deal that I couldn't pass up. I'm hoping that I can make it work, if not I will get rid of it for...

Height is 6'2" inseam is 33.5-34". Thinking something in the 56-58 range. Just found a 58cm 2004 Cervelo P3 for $300 locally that I might jump on

Definitely under 2k. I don't need new, don't mind buying used, and I don't need wheels so I am hoping to keep it low. I am seeing some older transitions and aluminum Cervelo's for around 1k, which is...
