I am planning on getting a new tri bike. I have been riding a Trek 5200 with a forward seat post and aerobars. I do most of my rides entirely in the aerobars. My races range from sprint to IM distance. I have been looking at the Cervelo P2K, Felt S22, QR Caliente, and Kestrel Talon (tri set-up). I do not want to spend over $2500. Any suggestions from IM and half IM veterans?

My vote goes to either the Talon or the Cervelo P2K. But you need to check on the fit. They're quite tricky for TT.

Both bikes are very popular in the TT circuit. Chris McCormack won the Ironman on a Talon, which I own one :)
