Macca is using a Profile Design CX3 bar and a negative-rise stem to hit his position - he can't hit it with the S-Works bar, which has a lot of extra stack height. That's one of my gripes about the Shiv - it's super tall. Most pros on the new Shiv have had to resort to third-party aerobar hardware to achieve their positions. This includes Macca, Crowie, and Ben Hoffman, just to name a few.

Chris McCormack is ready to make some fireworks. After taking a hiatus from Ironman to focus on an unsuccessful Olympic bid, the two-time Ironman champ is back with a vengence. What's amazing from an equipment perspective is the fact that his main rival, Craig Alexander, is now riding the same bike he is. Although the two have some different choices in wheels, aerobars, and drivetrains, they'll be on the same Specialized Shiv chassis, reducing any potential equipment-related aerodynamic advantages. For the last five years, one of these two men has won Ironman Hawaii. They've shut out everyone else. And now they're back, both on their Shivs, ready to blow up the field. This should be interesting, to say the least.
