Are you arguing to argue or do you actually not understand what I'm saying? I can't tell with you or tomatopants.

You could say that about any form of racing that has a ruleset (i.e. all). It's all arbitrary. Why race at all.

If it's all arbitrary then why make an illogical decision that benefits nobody, endangers riders, and costs more money? Tradition? TT bikes have existed for a minority of cycling's history.

I hate to break it to you Bubba, but not all road racers benefit equally from TT bikes - technique and training are big factors.

Do you have a point? Not all riders benefit equally from all kinds of bikes. Technique and training is the most important factor for all kinds of bikes and bike racing lol. I feel like you're just flailing here and making no points that mean anything. You're just hoping someone will side with you which is the typical strategy for internet trolling when they have nothing useful to contribute. Literally talking nonsense.

The solution to lowered visibility in the TT position is simple. Instead of rotating the torso forward in the TT/Tri position, rotated it the other way. Visibility is perfect. Feet are out front and head is towards the rear. If you crash, you are closer to the ground and it is the feet and legs, not the head, taking the impact.
Not much of a racer here, but I never crashed in a TT position but have had my share of Crit fun. Isn't crashing part of racing? |

A guy starts a thread with “change my mind” and then accuses someone else of being a troll. Priceless.

You're the one arguing in bad faith, at least my point of view is consistent and understandable. People like you think you're so smart but you would get laughed out of a real debate acting like this. That or people would think you aren't smart enough to follow a nuanced conversation. Either or.

TT bikes have been around for at least 40 years. I recall watching the Prologue of the TdF in person around 1982 and there were disc wheels, bull horns, small front wheels, etc. Changing TT in the Tours to "Eddy" style would unlikely change the order of results BUT would increase the time benefit to the faster riders. I like watching the TT with the fast bikes but do not think going back to 1960's bikes would change anything. |
