Surprise there? Focus Izalco Max won the lightest bike category. I will try to upload the result photo later today.

You have a typo. That should be Storck Aernario. But anyhow, Storck should change the name, at least for benefit of the English speaking audience, to Aeronario. Then how could it not be very aero? We don't need any imperfect wind tunnel testing to tell us how aero it is. With the name Aeronario, it's obviously aero, and more aero than any bike not having aero in its name.
