..........to spending money

Went to see my first duathlon today in preperation of my debut. Got a great idea of what to do and what not to do for the transition area.

But my question is this.

Do I need tri-bars?

I cycling Richmond Park in the London duathlon and wandering if they provide any benefit? If yes what are the main ones?

Thanks all

    Depends how you feel about your cycling, but if you're a total beginner, I'd just worry about your legs not being jelly when you get off the bike!

    NTN,have you been down to RP before?

    i personally think you would be better off taking your bike down to RP first and give it a lap or two and see how you get on and then decide whether your ready or not for tribars
