Great video as always, but I thing I would update, new people shouldn’t buy a helmet off marketplace or used in general. Most new people don’t understand the condition of a helmet, or how to properly fit one. Would 100% recommend getting a new helmet from a bike shop that can make sure you have the proper size and fitment.
And know the integrity of what is protecting your head, too!
Yes, that’s actually a point that I should’ve have said instead of buying it used.
I'd argue that this does not only include "new people", as imo its nearly impossible to tell inner damage from the outer appearance of a helmet.
Nice video! I would not buy a helmet on Facebook market place - good to replace after sun damage or damage you don’t know about. Helmets are all certified safe so get a cheap new one to train in.
Good point! Thanks for that!!
Could you do a video on what upgrades/marginal gains you have made on your bike and why you chose to update them?
That's a good idea!
Amazing video
Glad you think so!
Nice video. Ran my first marathon in a pair of Saucony Endorphin speed 2, it's an excellent shoe and I'm now using version 3 a lot for tempo sessions,. I'm guessing as well you also have power meters for all bikes and those can be quite expensive.
Thanks!
Yeah love my saucony endorphin speed 2. Power pedals so I transfer them to different bikes when I switch. So only have 1 pair.
Very good information, and a good presentation! One thing to add, if you want to race internationally or in the World Triathlon races, you will need an approved design national trisuit.
Yes thanks for adding. and that’s the case with PTO T100 races too, requiring your last name to be in your suit
This was really good. Other costs are coaching if you get one and nutrition or gym memberships
Very true! It just keeps adding up 😅
great video
Thanks!
this is a wonderful endorsement of not doing triathlon. thank you.
That Cyclplus is awesome especially when getting on planes to travel for IMs. I usually have to buy CO2's when I get to the IMs and then never use them and have to leave them there.
Totally agree!
Do you still carry Co2 in the race or just the electronic pump?
No co2. Just the electronic pump!
Pro tip: never buy a used helmet or used electronics, always buy these new. No bad surprise!
Good tip!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks 🙏
What would be the cost for domestic check in United States with bike alan bike box ? Thanks 🙏 @simonshi
Depends on the airlines. Southwest is $75 for a bag. United and American about $40 if it's under 50 pounds.
@@SimonShi thank you 🙏 and good luck this sunday will be tracking you in app
Some video ideas: speccing out your picks for 3 diff budgets on amazon/online, overrated tri gear, subscriber gear/strava reaction
Ahh. Very good knes!
What’s the subscriber gear? Strava reaction?
Send me something on instagram and maybe you can be the first guest 😀
The bikes are by far the most expensive, Just getting into Triathlons..Finished my first marathon Getting the bike going now, time to sell one of the kids... hahaha
Couldn't agree more! Omg haha 😂
