I've been reading through old threads based on "aero position" and related search strings. I ran across the "don't overthink" thread (which I've seen many times before). But, it got me thinking...it would be useful to have a similar compilation of general advice for rider position hints/tips/tweaks to improve overall CdA.
I realize everything aero needs testing to prove it out. So, unlike a lot of the things on the "don't overthing" thread...you can't just follow the advice blindly. I am planning to field test everything I try (vis-a-vis the Platypus thread).
I only acquired a TT bike this year (P3SL), and had a fit done by Tent Nix. I rode that to good success in my races this fall (2nd fastest AG bike split in both races with that bike+Position) on relatively lower watts. But, now that my off-season is here...I'm looking to improve.
I'd like to lay out a testing schedule over the winter, where on good weekend days, I can go over to my testing venue and run a series of tests on one or two changes at a time. So, I'm really looking to compile a list of things to try...specifically body/head/arm/elbow position changes.
Is there a thread already...that I just haven't run across, yet? Or would some of you more aero experienced, be willing to share some thoughts?
