- you need to know that the kit you buy
will help you reach your goals in all three
disciplines and work as hard as you on
race day. Our test team is made up of
experienced triathletes, cyclists and
runners who test each product that
appears in 220 to the max during
training and racing, rating it honestly
for performance and value.
