Any comments you would like to share about your bpStealth / Valdora Cycles equipment:
 
The PHX is the best bike I have owned (up until now 8 bikes).  It is fast, comfortable and the frame can really take a lot of stress.  I have been using it for the last 5 months in preparation for Ironman Switzerland and I can assure you that the position is great for triathlon.
 
I am using the  Valdora AC-Tri for my training rides, although I feel that its a shame since it is such a great bike but when you have the luxury of having the Stealth for Time Trials and the PHX for road racing and Tri then I am excused.  The AC-Tri is a very stiff frame. The down tube is an air foil shape making it very aerodynamic.  I have set up the frame as a road bike and the position is very comfortable for those long endurance rides.  The thing which has impressed me most so far is the fact that up the hills it is very responsive and I can push really hard without any flex from the bottom bracket.  It is a great frame for any competitive level.
