6. Latex tubes or tubeless fast tires
7. Racing shoes and pedals

The order is basically the biggest bag for the buck. I suspect if you did all of the above, you'd be at 20 mph

You are making a lot of power to go 18 mph......I'd work on the aero
Power, I have. One thing is pretty evident, I'm no stick. But the flip side of that is I'm about as aerodynamic as a brick. If the speed is about equipment, then $$$ is my limiting factor. I'm just a poor, unemployed nursing student. I would like to find a dedicated tri bike but that will have to wait until I'm out of school.
