I have a Kuota Kharma full carbon bike with 105 group set.And i just just purchased a Hewitt bike for training on in bad weather.I do i lot of gym work.I plan to join a club next season and do 10 and 25 TT's.
I would like to know will the Kuota be good enough for TT's.I know i will have to change the wheels as they are fulcum racing 7.Or should i start saving for a full TT bike.Don't know how the wife would take to 3 bikes.

    So long as you can get into a good low position on you current road bike, you won't need a specific TT bike, just fit tri bars onto your current bike. From an aerodynamic point of view, the frame doesn't make too much difference.

    The key thing is to get an aerodynamic position, helmet and skinsuit. If there is lots of money left over, get a deep rim front, then disc rear finally get a nice TT bike.
    You live and learn. At any rate, you live
