I cannot tell the logo of the wheels, it seems they have been blacked out. So maybe she doesn't have a wheel sponsor.

Edco wheels. Blacked out race photo (look at 6:00 on rear wheel), not blacked out in bike fit photo higher up thread.

are you saying the wheel was blacked out just the photo? Could mean she lost her wheel sponsor? But I don't know much about these things...

No idea why it was blacked out at race (or if it was done for photo). A quick google search brought me to her personal webpage where she has edco listed as a sponsor.

Apparently Edco offers wheels with either white or black decals.

IOW, it just a different set of wheels.

It's a Retul angular ranges thing.

Shoulder angle is a bit tight.(Could be a comfort thing) Like you said Dan would probably like it. Otherwise I think it's good.

Edco did offer their carbon line in with white or black logos. I just don't think there is an Edco in business anymore. It is hard to tell between venture capital investments and bankruptcies.

I'd definitely like to see her with more reach, maybe a slightly lower hand position and a different front hydration solution on that bike.

6-12w saved would be my guess

Just curious, why a lower hand position? Doesn't look like she's anywhere near full-mantis. I thought a bit of rise was generally considered faster for most riders (with the standard caveat that an individual can't know for sure without testing, of course).

She sang the song Gloria in the 80's

I agree as a little rise relaxes the shoulders and with that helmet it looks pretty good. What hydration system will make that cleaner too and save so many watts?

Her body is nicely in the slipstream of her helmet, will be uncomfortable though for her to look further forward on the road. Looks like she's checking "where's my down tube, where's my down tube".

Very few people have tested as much as you and Jim at Erosports, but it seems like you like horizontal hands and Jim prefers 15* "in general" - is that a result of predominately velodrome v windtunnel testing? It just seems like with as much testing as the two of you do that there would be a consensus on this...

Anyways, just curious.

OK, interesting. My initial thinking would have been that the velodrome would have been a little more real world...but I guess it is all zero yaw. That makes sense. Shoot. Now I have to rethink my own thinking...haha

Thanks!

""""""the velodrome would have been a little more real world""""""

In some aspects the velodrome is superior to the wind tunnel and in some aspects the wind tunnel is a better place to mimic real world. Depends which aspects.

Edco doesn't make a disc. I agree that a wheelcover would be faster but that would probably violate her sponsor agreement.

that would probably be a mistake. as much as ''trends'' are nice and easy to digest basing a decision of yours off testing done by others would be betting on a guess. also, the velodrome is not all zero, it's all 0-2 or 3 i think.
