Would this be a good bike for a triathlon? I am doing a sprint in August, and this will be the first bike I've ever gotten. It's a 2008 Cannondale Slice, and maybe a little bit big for me? I would have to see the fit in person, but the seller is asking for $400.
It doesn't come with pedals or water bottle holders, to my dismay. The seller said that I could, for $50, "add the Mavic Power-tap wheel that comes with the Power tap computer head". I don't really know what that means, but I like training with data and feel like I'd probably be interested in it. I definitely want to measure cadence somehow.
Also, would this be good for winter training? I live in Chicago, so I can't go outside in the winter to bike. I would probably use MyWhoosh or whatever, but then I'd have to get some sort of indoor trainer, right?
I don't understand how all of this works so if you could help me out that'd be much appreciated. Right now I've been biking on the spin bikes in my gym, where I can connect my heart rate monitor and see my cadence.
