Blue Triad Ex
I have an opportunity to buy a Blue Triad Ex for a good discount as my first dedicated time-trialer, so I was wondering if any other riders here have experience with Blue, and the Triad, specifically. High Modulus and Sram Force are big selling points, and I am mostly curious about the bike's 1.) stiffness 2.) durability and 3.) warranty-honoring.

while at first I want to say never trust a bike pictured in the small ring (especially a TT rig!), but having owned a Blue a few years ago, they're good stuff. Go for it--
