Possible, but Google-fu is less informative on their road bike crank lengths than it is on their TT bikes. Neither is extroardinarily tall so there's no limb-length argument for a really long crank on either bike.

12-15 degrees of up-angle on the forearm is looking more and more like the sweet spot, but there is another change that must also be made to get the full benefit.

I think the change is a bank account $699 lighter.

Both Cancellara and Martin are legendary for their TT abilities. I don't think this is the case.

Hi Neal,


Good question...seems there's no name for it yet, see the below article in which it states: "No information was immediately available from Giro about the new lid."
