Tri-Trend: Extensions (tribøjle) - it goes up the
In the pictures from Challenge Kraichgau running both über biker Sebastian Kienle and ETU European Champion Andreas Raelert with extensions (tribøjle), which is adjusted a lot up. A tri-trend or just a coincidence? We asked the German Sebastian Kienle about it.
The German and über biker Sebastian Kienle is known as materialeperfektionist and is probably the fastest triathlete on bicycle at the moment. Challenge by Roth 2011 he rode a time of 4:12:46, which corresponds to 42,78 km / h average. Lance Armstrong back and forth, but Kienle beat him in Ironman 70.3 Texas more or less convincing on the bike: 2:03:43 to 2:05:10. ( results )
Itriathlon: Hi Sebastian, we can see that you and Andreas Raelert has adjusted extension'erne visible up. Extreme example is the TJ Tollakson known and has introduced knælerpositonen. Is it a coincidence or is hiding more behind it?
Sebastian: Yes, that's right. I have adjusted extension'erne more up to sit more stable on the bike. Moreover relaxes my back and my neck muscles, and I greatly less to keep the body in the right place. My front end face of the bike has also been reduced slightly.

Interview with Sebastian Kienle in German.
Itriathlon: Halle Sebastian, uns ist das auf jeden aufgefallen Fall you und Andreas Raelert die Extentions sichtlich nach oben justiert haben. Ganz extrem macht es yes TJ Tollakson. Zufall oder mehr steckt dahinter?
Sebastian: Hallo ihr da, stimmt. Die Extentions hab ich weiter nach oben gemacht weil ich so staff rushes auf dem Rad sitze. Außerdem entspannt sich mein Rücken und meine Nackenmuskulatur und ich muss weniger Haltearbeit Leisten. Die Stirnfläche hat sich auch noch dadurch minimal reduziert.
