Thanks!..I was hoping the new Addict was on the list. How did the other frames rank?
Cervelo S5 tested best in the wind tunnel, though Storck Aenario 'won' the aero category again for having the most balanced ride characteristic (comfort stiffness aerodynamic) despite having one of the worst aerodynamic in the test. Surprise there?
Focus Izalco Max won the lightest bike category. I will try to upload the result photo later today.

I think the real differences between 2013 and 2014 are not so big...
Canyon, cannondale ...are the same frames

You have a typo. That should be Storck Aernario.ichobi wrote:Cervelo S5 tested best in the wind tunnel, though Storck Aenario 'won' the aero category again for having the most balanced ride characteristic (comfort stiffness aerodynamic) despite having one of the worst aerodynamic in the test.
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.
