Thanks for the video! I have one question. What is the width of these spokes? I have older trispoke wheels from Superteam and these spokes are as wide as the rims. I see Elite spokes are narrower, but want to know how narrow.

Unbelievable improvements for me. Went from 170mm to 160mm on my road bike. I sit more symmetrical on the saddle; I sit right in the pocket of my saddle. No more shifting forward/backwards. Much more power as well with overall comfort.

Lovely bike, i have a 2017 s5 thinking about getting a TT bike and just came across this video of yours... Would you say tribars on an S5 would be enough should i go the TT route... ? Have been looking into P3 frames would like to build one over a time period... P.s. what kind of avg speed were you able to get out of this setup for 40k / half iron / iron distances would be nice to know set wattage too if you remember... ?
@bendeal35168 ай бұрын
The S5 is still a very fast frame, but the main advantage of a TT frame is going to be enabling you to get into the proper position, generally significantly more forward with saddle closer to the bottom bracket and further over the front wheel. Something like the new TriRig Sigma One stem could also be an interesting option for your s5, as it would give all the advantages of a modern aerobar setup just from the stem! The year I raced this at Indian Wells 70.3 I averaged 276w for 25.1mph. That was before the course got changed to being a bit faster!
@jibranjawaid8 ай бұрын
@@bendeal3516 Great wattage and speed! That's awesome, I have managed to do 40kms (25miles) on flat but windy course at an AVG speed of 36kph (22.3 mph) on the S5 with the profile design aero bars and the sl70 Zipp bar at 205w... I will look into your recommended stem, have heard good reviews about tririg brakes... Cheers and ride on!

Like an airplane wing, the leading edge of the spoke should be rounded, while the trailing edge is sharper. If not, less aero benefit.
