Already a proven champion, this bike just keeps getting better! A complete redesign for 2009, the lighter and more aerodynamic Talon SL solidifies its place as the benchmark in carbon triathlon bikes. The multi-position carbon seat post allows the rider to achieve the coveted 78 degree seat angle. The SL uses 800K carbon to enhance ride quality. Leave the competition behind.
