Understanding the differences between a road bike and a triathlon bike is important if you wish to maximize your investment in a triathlon bike. Frames come in various sizes. For the most part, the frame angles on road bikes remain consistent from one manufacture to the next. In other words the steepness on the seat tube remains relatively the same from one road bike manufacturer to another and from one size to the next. Not so for triathlon bikes.

Bike fit begins with the saddle. If you're not comfortable in the saddle, the remainder of the fit cannot be precise because you will continue to compensate for the discomfort. There are three pressure points that connect to the saddle; two in the back (of your butt) and one in the front. On a road bike, most of the pressure is on the rear two pressure points. As you roll forward into the triathlon or aero position, pressure is transferred from the rear pressure points to the single front pressure point. A triathlon bike is made to spend 80% or more in the aero position which means your saddle needs account for the additional pressure placed toward the front of the saddle. As mentioned in the previous article, if you're not spending 80% of your time in the aero position, you're not maximizing your investment. The following is a list of the most popular and most effective saddles on the market. I'm sure one of these saddles will solve any saddle discomfort out there. If not, fear not as there is a saddle for every butt. |
