I (male 6’3” ) am looking to get a bike for a triathlon . I’d this price decent and is this bike a good option for a triathlon ? I’m not trying to win just compete .
the most important consideration is the condition of the components. if they’re in fair shape, brakes, derailleurs, cassette, chain, cranks, and bearings – headset, bottom bracket, hubs. if all that stuff is in fair shape, and the bike fits, sure. if not, that stuff can add up quickly in terms of labor to repair/replace any number of those items.
