| Champion 6503 NOVA - Ironic for an Endurance Athlete | Subject: RE: Critique the fit on my new bike!!! #1 - I don't know why you want us to look at the top picture. This is obviously a tri-bike, so the only fit that matters is in aero, and the fit looks 'spot on' in aero. #2 - The largest problem is that your tires are not touching the ground. I'm not a physicist, but I think that having your wheel an inch or two off the ground will effect your speed. #3 - A secondary issue not related to the fit is that wind tunnel tests have shown that pursing your lips will cause wind vortexes in your lungs and could cause you to pop several aveoli. Best of luck with your sweet new ride! Edited by pga_mike 2009-02-06 1:55 PM |
