TIME TRIAL BICYCLE

A time trial (TT) bicycle is a specialized road bicycle designed purely for aerodynamic efficiency and speed when riding solo against the clock. It is used in time trial stages of road races and individual time trial events.

Key features include aggressive aerodynamic tube shapes, a steep seat tube angle (to push the rider forward and preserve muscle groups for running in triathlon), and integrated aero-bars that allow the rider to assume a very low, tucked position. Disc wheels are also commonly used for aerodynamic advantage.
