I’d be interested to see this too!
In particular:
Messy cables → tidy cables (costs nothing)
Normal base bar to integrated more-aero-looking bar (costs something)
I went to Matt Bottrill in the UK years ago and he was big on tidying cables for the reason it costs nothing, looks good, and “probably saves something”
This is a great write up and interesting read!!

Thanks for posting this!
Thank you Marc!!!
Really appreciate all of this
What’s your CdA and how fast would you expect to do Kona for a given wattage? As a benchmark for those of us self-optimizing.
At 200w I would be in the 4h45 IM range on a fast course. At 180w I would be sub 5h. Just to give ballpark. I do more TT, shorter efforts however.
I can get lower than that with known, more aggressive fit and some equipment tweaks but that was not my goal here. Example, the skinsuit I have I have 3 of them (identical), so I don’t have to do laundry every day to test every day. My helmet is good, but not top 2…..I can drop stack quite a bit still. There are several fit options I would try. I figure there is room for another 5min on a IM
Pulling apart the details and looking at the log of tests, I spent a lot of time trying to get the P2 to catch the PSeries and the PSeries to the Ventum.
