The Top 15 Kona female Pros on their bikes

November 7, 2017

Up close and personal with the bikes and components of the Top 15 female Pros at the 2017 IRONMAN World Championships in Kona, Hawaii. All the data you could possibly want – collected for you on a single page, and that includes tire choices and widths, crank lengths, bike sizes, power meters and much more. Most of the athletes featured here were very helpful and answered in a professional and speedy fashion, while others required a bit more effort. In some cases however there sadly was the "sound of silence."

Timothy Carlson provided all the pictures here and without these side images there would be no such features. But now have a closer look and maybe you can help us fill out some of the blanks.
