Oh definitely. I'm not sure if the extra speed is attributed to the sticker, or the fact that the bike is black (fastest color by far)...or maybe a combination of both?

Back to the stickers...one thing I forgot to mention is that decals are intended for flat surfaces and a disc is curved, so that is why you need a vinyl sticker that is stretchy. It is a major POA to put on because of this. The decal will naturally want to have folds to compensate so you need to start at the middle an very very slowly work your way out to the side pushing it a cm at a time radially out. Have someone to help hold the sticker, to keep it from adhering before you're ready.* You may want to buy one extra as the first one will likely default to "practice" and end up unusable. By the time you're done, you will be a pro.

*do not have your 6 year old daughter help with this...that comes from experience.

If I ever actually pass anyone on the bike, I'll have to do that.

Man, they're awesome! Feel like a sailboat when it's windy out! You definitely have to get one for next season. I've read that aero jackets give you most of the benefits of a disc for 1/6 the price!

I'm looking for a Flash decal...

I usually end up using stickers from other races or events.

All the benefits. Sometimes for 1/10 the price.

That's the coolest ever! Maybe insinuates you have weak legs and need a REALLY big ring in the back, but still neat-o looking.

This article estimates how much time can be saved in sprint races by converting from stock aero wheels found on most tri bikes to more aero disk and composite spoked wheels.
