What's your favourite bit of tech in this vid? 🤔

Mark

[@jascollinscork]

The new Tri suit looks unreal BUT no dimples on it 😢 we need to see a some road tests results with it 🤔

[@RichardWait]

4D Metron bars - but hey I'm little bias as I bought them already :)

[@trbotimmmmmmmeh]

both of my calves almost blew up last night, need those compression therapy bands. dont forget to stretch kids! toes up, heels down!

[@darianbroadhead2863]

Triathlons 5th discipline: buying expensive things that you believe will make you fast like the professionals.

[@zacharyerskine4277]

I was laughing the whole time at all of this stupid tech for half the people who do tris they bike run and swim a combined 4 hours a week it seems like. At least in my area 😆

[@carlbonthuys3550]

And what's the 4th discipline?

[@FUJITRACK10]

I have a neighbour that believes that 😂

Ceramic Speed... OG snake oil company.

[@leslie7922]

Ceramicspeed is a joke lol $900 jockey wheel that will bend and scratch at the cafe

[@darthjohn0]

If you want to save money just do swim/run and ditch cycling :p

[@jeffcarrol4263]

Will this tech make my wife and son love me more?

[@michaelr.8402]

sure😜

[@jayb.6685]

the 180 wheel looks like a doughnut

[@jimjamthebananaman1]

Jan Frodeno’s bike is 100% the nicest tri bike out there I think.

[@tsyhll]

You got all the tech for running and cycling but why can’t we use tech for swimming? At least a snorkel to make breathing easier.

[@AndrewShakespeare]

USAT rules allow snorkels

[@tsyhll]

@@AndrewShakespeare how about fins?

[@savagepro9060]

Let's see the age grouper's crazy tech, come on, that the gist of Kona!

[@gtn]

We will if we can 👍

[@gerardochaparro1639]

GTN trisuit looks SO COOL! Maybe a giveaway that I wont win? 😂

[@gtn]

🤔

[@emmaduizend]

@Global Triathlon Network, when will the trisuits be available? They look AWESOME!

[@oliverleibbrandt8067]

ollie from GCN would be in heaven 😂

[@Slow.Smooth]

180mm wheel for 180km bike leg LOL

[@rosomak8244]

You shouldn't call them disc brakes. Those are aerodynamic brakes with the additional ballast feature on top of it..

[@douglasbooth6836]

My question why they don’t start using DLC on bearings and chains? I’m sure Ferrari didn’t even use oil in the dlc bearings.

[@endurodadclint5377]

Not a fan of the 180 wheel. Think it’s bad for the sport. Always about faster and faster instead of harder and tougher course . I don’t want to see Kona finishing in 7 hrs in 2030.

[@grahambell9831]

Great insight into the world of " Kona Tech!" . Really good to see Leon Chevaliers bike at Kona too👌. I'm personally routing for this chap. Top man. Top athlete. Definitely a star and has a bright future ahead. If I may a personal hello and good luck to Mark Turnbull of Elswick Harriers 👏. A fellow harrier who will be competing in the V50 category.

[@gtn]

Awesome! We will also have an in-depth look at Leon's bike at some point in the future so do keep an eye out on the channel for that one 🙌

[@grahambell9831]

@@gtn I certainly will Team GTN. Excellent coverage as always. After meeting Leon this years alpe duez triathlon, I know what talent he is. Very personable, knowledgeable, guy 👍

[@christopherdoyle4129]

Did you mention how sad the expo was compared to other years? 1/2 expositors missing.

[@356z]

They got Lucy's bike with the new part installed. That was fast!

[@jhands1988]

Hopefully by the time the paint dries it matches better.

[@Wendallpie]

The Roglič bars seem nice, but how much for the arms? I want a pair before he loses them in a crash.

[@levbobrov1398]

Too soon, man, too soon!

[@johnnyboy4711]

what size cassette is on that 1st bike cervelo hed 180 plus does the rear derailleur have a clutch?

[@iivv_nn]

2k for an alloy wheel with fairing

[@kennethward9530]

No marginal gain too small, no price too big…

[@desroin]

Since I'm looking into putting aero bars on my road bike I'd say the aero bars remain my favourite bit of tech in this vid xD That being said I'm wearing Trimtex suits myself so of course I'm drooling over the new suits as well

[@gtn]

🔥

[@savagepro9060]

The GTN kit is devilishly wicked. Wow . . . NOICE! I don't usually give GTN a 'noice' but when I do . . .

[@gtn]

Thanks 🙌

[@Hawlkeye-e9p]

racers are beta testers

[@gtkona1608]

Turbulators😀

[@jonathanzappala]

I like the shirt opening on the trim Tex suit. I wish mine had it. Might have to pick one up. Hurt my wallet.

[@lattepus7888]

built a 'new' deep section wheel just for kona event is just mad

[@CatManDoSocial]

Very nice video. Just FYI, Anne Hed's name is pronounced Ann-eee.

[@andreemurray7039]

Won't the zipp wheels that broke at the mixed time trail at the worlds

[@356z]

The kits blue! I can't help but feel like they took my comment into consideration 😎

[@savagepro9060]

9:38 Lucy: Oh no! Mark! keep your bloody hands off!

[@RichardWait]

the 4D Bars can take the TFE Pro bars too! ;)

[@roquevelasco2605]

GTN tri suit. Niiiiiceeeeeee

[@gtn]

🔥

[@corecreekproductions6533]

When will the GTN Tri suit be available to purchase?

[@gtn]

We'll be releasing further information soon 🙂

[@MrJhockley]

I was wondering when ceramic speed would creep in. One of the few brands you spend money to go slower. Good for making training harder though.

[@jeremymaclean3535]

Yesss Lucy is finally on shimano!!!!

[@francescodotx]

after us open fiasco I imagine

[@marcuswills6569]

@@francescodotx She was on Shimano at the US Open, the main issue was the Di2 battery

[@jascollinscork]

Ooooooh yesss my favourite part of GTN at Kona 😍😍😍
