Nothing to do with the frame materials...it's the whole cut down flat bars thing, cards in the wheels...etc

That bike seems to be incredibly aero. Much much much less frontal area than any other TT specific bike :mrgreen:

Not sure if this one has been posted, but I think it's freaky... even though it's stock.

Handlebar angle and hood placement is a little wonky... but the main thing is that top tube into stem look. I would actually like to have one tho! :D
