Bike dilemma (4)

I just bought a 2014 Giant TCR Composite 2, I paid $1780.

However I am second guessing myself and thinking that I should have bought something else and made a bigger investment.
So I am thinking of returning and exchanging the bike for possibly the Cervelo S3 which is $3900.

In June I will be competing in my first triathlon. My thinking is, that if I decide to keep competing in triathlons, the Cervelo will be fine. But if not its still good for the road.
Or keep the TCR and later invest in a real tri bike?

Any thoughts or recommendations?

Thank you!

If you think you’re going to be doing a fair number of triathlons, keep the Giant and get a tri bike. There will be no comparison in terms of speed. If you think you’ll be happy with a road bike, do whatever will make you happy.

+1 – Keep the Giant. If you like Triathlon, get a tri/tt bike later.
