Hi all,
I began cycling back in April and I am now becoming very addicted.
I bought a Specialised Sirrus Elite 2009 as my original intentions were to do some long tours and was advised this was the bike for me by LBS.
I am now interested in taking part in local Time Trials and have made enquires and have joined my local cycle club, however I have yet to attend the TT as I am concered about my bike, as most other people will be competing on there specific time trial machines. I am also looking to enter my first triathlon but having the same reservations about my bike.
I would love to be able to go out and by a new specific racing bike but unfortunately I have no spare cash so this isnt an option.
I have already had the stem flipped upon advice and have clipped areo bars on and have clippless pedals.
Is there any other advice anyone would give to improve the performance of my current bike without have to send much money?
Below is a picture of my current bike setup: http://www.cyclechat.co.uk/forums/picture.php?albumid=137&pictureid=810
