It would be of interest to put a profile of the bike shown here up against a profile of the Liverpool University bike (not the trike).
The nose of this bike seems quite blunt i.e. not a concorde type nose. I wondered how this compares with the other battle mountain bikes e.g. Delft, Liverpool, Canadian. I also wondered about the wheel spacing compared to the other bikes. What was the wind speed being simulated when the resistance of 11 Newtons was being measured? |
