IRONMAN70.3 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP Wednesday Recap

アイアンマンヴィレッジもオープンした。

オフィシャルバイクはVENTUM。ランシューズはHOKA ONE ONE、アパレルはSantini。そして、ドリンクはGatorade。

VENTUMブースでは、新型のディスクブレーキ仕様が展示されている。ディスクブレーキ化により、フロント周りがシンプルとなったVENTUM ONE。ハンドル周りのユーザビリティも高め、「完全新型」としてリリースされている。

DHバーのアジャスタビリティ向上により、フィット性を高め、ボトル下のトップチューブに大型のストレージを備えている。また、ハイドレーションへの補充機能もアップデートしている。そして、元々エアロダイナミクスの高いVENTUMがフロントのシンプル化により、更なる速さを追求している。ライディングフィールの良さもそのままであることを期待したい。
