2016 'PRO' cycling discussion.

I love how Andy's shop has a bike fit 'machine'. Does your fit accommodate sprinting on the hoods?

[jeffy]

watching the ITT(on road bikes) stage today, surprised how flared out Cav's Enve Aero Bars were.

2016 and you still think getting in the drops is always more aero than staying on the hoods for everyone who rides? Really?

"Crit Cav" on Qrings again:

Strange, that he found a skinsuit for today. He didn't even wear one in the first stage (weared a DDD jersey), but complained about the leader's jersey's flappiness in the 2nd, when he lost.

khm, the quote says "...SPRINTING on the hoods" Nothing about which is more aero.

Michael Shär 'bout to drop some watts.

Stage 1:


Stage 2:


A tight jersey is still better than one flapping around. For such a close finish I don't blame him on complaining about the jersey

naw i kinda like the idea of andy fitting people. He was the king of -17 slam. No question about that. Just dont ask him about descending or TT position.

Thibaut has made some changes to his tt position for this season & he looks better for it. Nice tt bike too

EBH Norwegian champ paint scheme.
Is that "custom" enve setup? Looks more like 6.9 than 8.9.

Its definitely a mix and match set. Hard to tell with all the wheel depths ENVE has going around at the moment. Either a 4 or 6 front and an 8 or 9 rear.

The Enve aero bars are super flared. A size 42 is 42cm c2c at the drops and around 37cm c2c at the hoods. Theory being that the biggest gains from an aero bar is making the rider aero too.

I wonder if they have a different bar?
Thiers do not seem quite as narrow on top.
The stock Enve aero road bar is silly.

Nate I bet Andy has a massive bin of -17 140mm stems...

^ You win for the day sir.

[KWalker]

So you want narrow bars at the top for aero?

But in the drops, eh, screw it, lets keep them wide and not aero. Makes total sense.
