5. Forget a fork upgrade. Your next step in aero purchasing should be a TT helmet, then skinsuit.
I dont think he means TT's on a road. By the sound of your statement, its like you were expecting him to ride his TT fixed gear on the road.

I think he means using this bike in a pursuit/team pursuit/ individual pursuit on the track. If thats the case, I suggest going over to the track cycling forum. They would better be able to assist you if you are intending to use this "TT" setup on the track in a pursuit.

However, I DID see on FFG, someone who used a Schwinn Madison in the Kona Ironman. SUPPOSEDLY. He had the picture of the bike and everything./ IMight still be able to link it. If i can find the link ill post it for you. But try headnig on over to the track forum. I think the SS/FG is more for road applications of fixed gear bicycles- hence the differentiation of track cycling and fixed gear.
