Here is a short youtube video that shows the CDF findings; you can see from the shapes which tube profile belongs to which aero design and the truncated designs create far more turbulent air than the full profile tubes they are modelled on. I'm putting this out there for conversation and interesting debate...not to prove I'm right or someone's wrong. I just ride bikes fast...not design fast bikes....and when it comes to riding fast...the rider still makes more of a difference than the frame! "//http://www.youtube.com/...xi7t5lSBgS7i3vGS1BgQ"
I watched it.
I don't see a foil shape that matches the bike.
Shape matters a lot.
Foil "D" is the Scott Foil profile. Just can't say that for brand reasons so I'm just suggesting this.
Really? OK, well I agree it's a pretty sucky looking aero shape if that's the case.
Perhaps the tube not being vertical changes things when actually in use.
