Set a goal time for each leg to see the pace you need to hold — and your total aquabike finish time.
Pick a race distance and set a goal time for the swim and the bike. The calculator shows the pace you need on each leg — swim pace per 100m and bike speed — and adds them, with your transition, into a total finish time. Adjust either leg to see the total move.
| Leg | Distance | Goal time |
|---|---|---|
| Swim | Distancem | Goal time |
| Transition 1 | Time | |
| Bike | Distancekm | Goal time |
Enter each transition time as minutes:seconds (ex - 2:30), and each sport time as hours:minutes:seconds (1:15:00).
Edit pacing details below and your finish time & race summary will update accordingly.

Aquabike is a swim followed by a bike — a triathlon without the run. It's a popular way into multi-sport for swimmers and cyclists, and a favorite for anyone protecting their legs from the pounding of a run.
You get the open-water start and the transition of a triathlon, then finish on the bike — free to push the ride all the way to the line.
A swim followed by a bike — a triathlon without the run. Sprint and Olympic distances, often alongside a tri at the same venue.
