It is April 12, 2017 and I’m about to aero test the latest Felt TA FRD, reportedly the fastest track frame in the world. I’ll be riding dozens of 30mph laps around the Velo Sports indoor velodrome in Carson, California.  I was personally invited by Felt, as the only retailer representative, to test the bike […]Read More

I recently posted my test results from my trip with Marty to use the cutting edge Alphamantis Track Aero System (TAS) at the Mattamy National Cycling Center in Milton, Ontario. The TAS provides real-time aerodynamic data to the tester while you’re riding, which facilitates faster on-the-spot results and decisions compared to my normal field testing routine. […]Read More

I recently had the opportunity to use the cutting edge Alphamantis Track Aero System (TAS) at the Mattamy National Cycling Center in Milton, Ontario. The TAS provides real-time aerodynamic data to the tester while riding, which facilitates faster on-the-spot results and decisions compared to my normal field testing routine. With anticipation and excitement, Marty and […]Read More

  We recently finished writing the aero helmet review for the Triathlete Magazine Buyer’s Guide and the above is a picture of the candidates we reviewed.  There are a number of relatively new aero helmets out there and one of our favorites this year is the new Bell Javelin (see below).   The Javelin (as worn […]Read More

Aerodynamics 101 You’ve got questions, we’ve got answers… Howdy Tech Support from the great state of Texas. It seems like more and more products are being wind tunnel tested, yet multiple companies often claim that their product is the most aero. They can’t all be right in their claims. What gives? Lincoln, TX Dear Lincoln, […]Read More

  This time trial position is my fastest yet. I’m comfortable enough to ride long time trials; I maintain more of my road bike power than ever before;  and my CdA is down to 0.208.  Win, win, win.  Yet if I looked at this position for the first time, I’d think there’s no way it’s […]Read More

I promised a report of my most recent trip to the A2 wind tunnel back in 2021.   While it took me a while to get to the write-up, I fortunately still have all the data and notes.  Even better, now that time has passed, I can draw better conclusions about this trip than I could […]Read More

Background and Old Position: Up until 2017, I spent many years testing and fine tuning my aero position.  I was pursuing record; records where set-up details matter a lot.  I documented a lot of this in prior posts.  However, I stopped riding the position I had put so much time into refining a few years […]Read More

This being said, there are a lot of aero tri bikes on the market. Making a decision based on one being slightly more aero than another in a wind tunnel […]Read More
