Dangit, now I'm a hijacker too...


With 150-180g of tare drag "left off" I don't see any reason to doubt the Shiv #'s are real ... Let's play the game and say it's not...and .. 150-180g more drag via setups


OK, so if I'm tracking with you correctly, this P3C below I tested at 689g at 0deg yaw in 2006 at LSWT

Below that is the Cervelo test, backs my numbers up, as does the test by Andy at TAMU (on a P3T)

so, subtract 150 to 180g for the tare ... you get to 500-530g

right in step with the Shiv's numbers from A2

so...

TTX 680g
P3C 680g
Shiv 650g (corrected for +150g tare)
P4 575g
