The SRfive is their more accessible carbon tri bike, built for athletes moving up from an entry-level setup. The CD0.1 is an aluminium triathlon bike for athletes new to the discipline who need a proper geometry introduction before investing in full carbon. Why Choose Quintana Roo for Triathlon? Quintana Roo are specialists — they only make triathlon bikes, and that focus shows in every aspect of their design. Their integrated storage systems are more practical than most competitors. Their geometry has been refined over decades of real race data from Ironman events worldwide. And their value proposition is strong: equivalent aerodynamic performance to bikes costing significantly more from brands that treat tri as
