To win an Ironman race or set a new PB, a rider must be able to hold the most aero position for the entire 180km bike leg. A guiding philosophy behind the Cadex Tri frameset is that aero performance goes beyond wind-tunnel data. It\u2019s about achievable gains for real-world racers.<\/p>\n
Looking at the bike from the front, the most striking design element is the fork. The wide-spread legs have been designed to allow air to flow cleanly through and around the long, bladed legs, directing airflow past the rider\u2019s legs toward the streamlined rear end of the bike.<\/p>\n
According to Cadex, extensive wind-tunnel testing showed that this design reduces airflow blockage at the front of the bike and minimises the overall drag of the rider and bike.<\/p>\n
Finding the perfect fit<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Another key USP of the frameset, says Cadex, is its wide-ranging adjustability, \u201cwhich makes it quick and easy to dial in over 1,000 different fit configurations. This allows triathletes of all heights and body dimensions to achieve a perfect fit and a comfortable, optimised position over long distances.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTriathletes are constantly looking for ways to improve aerodynamics, pedalling efficiency and of course comfort,\u201d Blummenfelt said.<\/p>\n
\u201cOver the course of 180km, small changes add up. Sometimes what feels or tests fast in the wind tunnel doesn\u2019t work as well out on the road. Having the ability to make these adjustments quickly and easily is a game-changer when you\u2019re trying to optimise your riding position and fit.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cadex Tri storage solutions<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Cadex has built a complete solution right into the frame in order to keep it away from the wind and boost the bike\u2019s aero performance.<\/p>\n
The unique design, with a lack of top tube and a large down tube allows for a new way to store and access your essentials on race day, all while remaining in an aero position on the bars.<\/p>\n
A removable bento box is present in the top part of the down tube and is said to be able to house up 10 32ml energy gels (in size large). Cadex says the rubber cover holds the energy gels in place, while part of the gel will be poking out to allow for quicker access.<\/p>\n
Further down the down tube you\u2019ll find the hydration system with a refill point that can be topped up with a bidon. The reservoir volume varies by bike size, from 600ml for a size XXS to one litre for a size large.<\/p>\n
A straw then travels through the down tube and appears out of an aero cover at the head tube, giving the rider access to their fluids without having to change position.<\/p>\n
If more fluid is needed, there\u2019s also bottle cage mounts on the front of the seat tube.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, an integrated toolbox is located near the bottom bracket, much like we\u2019ve seen on the Argon 18 E119 Tri+ Disc, which can be accessed from the non-drive side. Essential tools such as a multi-tool, tyre lever and CO2 inflator come as standard.<\/p>\n

Recognising how much of a hassle it is to disassemble and pack up a bike for travel, Cadex has designed the Tri frameset to make things easier.<\/p>\n
The base bar and extensions are said to fold down painlessly into a compact size that\u2019ll allow you to load it into a case without having to disassemble it.<\/p>\n
Purchase the Cadex Tri frameset and you\u2019ll also get a Topeak case thrown in for free. The case is made with a polycarbonate shell, interior protection sleeves, a drivetrain cover and a mounting system to keep the frame secure. It\u2019s said to comply with airline luggage restrictions and there\u2019s wheels to help you move it around.<\/p>\n
New wheelset for tri and TT<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Along with the new Tri frame, Cadex also unveiled the new Aero Disc and Aero 4-Spoke WheelSystems for triathlon and time trial racing, which, they claim, are the fastest wheels they\u2019ve ever created.<\/p>\n
The Aero Disc is for rear-wheel use, and the Aero 4-Spoke is available in both front and rear.<\/p>\n
