Hello all,

I'm in the midst of training for my first tri inSeptember, and I'd like to at least have a tri bike that I could train with for the last two weeks, so my schedule is flexible.

What I'm looking for:
--Sub-$1000. Perhaps a Fuji Aloha, QRoo Kilo, Kuota K-Factor, or even a Motobecane Nemesis or Nemesis Pro. I'd prefer to spend about $800. A used Felt S32 would be my dream bike!! (at this price point)
--Beginner tri bike for someone who is 5'11" (I use a 56cm Felt Z90 road, for reference) so I think I could fit between 54-57cm frames
--I like the bullhorn/aero bar combo or a tri-specific bar. no drop bars please!
--bar-end brakes and shifters
--Aluminum at the minimum, carbon would be a plus (but keep in mind my bidget is $1000)
--newer models wth aero frames
--76-78 degree seat angle
--700c wheels
--Location somewhere around VA would be a plus, but I don't mind it being shipped so long as the condition stated is as accurate as possible!


Thanks so much guys!
