    Bike fit segment was super rad! Side note, the Ornot mini bar bag fits perfectly on my tt bike, in case you were looking for something a bit more compact.

    If you are looking for a challenge on the east coast you should do laps on Whiteface Mountain in NY and the Lake Placid Ironman loops

      Not sure where he lives in CT, but the closest CT city to the two spots mentioned is 10 hours round trip by car. Not sure driving all day, part of that in the dark, and paying $150 for gas would be worth it to find a good hill.

    • @Steven-oi3ef
      @Steven-oi3ef Před 11 měsíci +1

      @@brianmcewen3082 not sure what the downside is for highlighting options to improve his cycling? Lake Placid Iron Man has one of the toughest cycling courses in the circuit - far more challenging than the teeny hills in CT. Dude wants to be a world class athlete and needs to train like one. You can’t stay on the flats and expect to be competitive. Obviously a day trip makes no sense… lots of triathletes train in the Lake Placid area…

  • @jenslundberg410
    @jenslundberg410 Před 11 měsíci +2

    Hi Ari, what extension/adapter are you using to get longer reach on your Speedmax? I can see that it looks different than standard but it’s hard to see exactly in the video.

    • @archmdz
      @archmdz  Před 11 měsíci +2

      It's the Wattshop Monopost Bracket paired with their adjustable angled spacer and extension pole clamps. Extensions themselves are Aerocoach Angles 15deg extensions. Pads are Tririg Open Back Scoops, which allow me to rest my elbows far up the pads because they're so long, giving even more reach.

    Noob question but it still looks like you're really far forward on the saddle, like the back half of the saddle is just not even being used - is that how it's supposed to look?

    • @troycollett8540
      @troycollett8540 Před 11 měsíci

      Yeah when you use tri bars you need to be forward on the saddle that’s why The saddle he uses is heavily padded in the nose of the saddle

    • @archmdz
      @archmdz  Před 11 měsíci +2

      It’s a comfort thing more than anything. The saddle is also split in the front (ISM PN3.0 if youre curious) to relieve pressure in the TT position so it’s very comfortable having very little contact with the saddle. Also allows me to get even further over the bottom bracket, giving me more leverage over the pedals and making the position a bit more quad dominant, saving glutes for running.

    Yeah another person giving advice. How about not racing next year? Hear me out. You're super young in bike and swim years. Read Alan Couzens, and hang out all year in Z2, get a big farty bass base, then crush 'em in 2025. Maybe not sustainable depending on race income, sponsorship, and the like. But damn, if that isn't a bet on yourself . . .
