Great Britain’s triathletes will pursue Olympic gold in Paris with the help of a new weapon: cutting edge trisuits designed to make them go faster on the water or a bike.
The new kit, which uses different materials and covers more of the body than conventional trisuits, was tested secretly in competition by Team GB’s Alex Yee and Beth Potter in a world series race in Cagliari in May. Yee won his race, while Potter was third.
