It saved me 27.3 watts over 50km @ 95% of FTP when pushing level 110% of my LTHR - all in all the reduction in Cd has been a real bonus
The above is all lies and I've never used one, and probably doesn't make much sense. But I have heard good things from a gentleman I sold one to0 -
i was out riding with masterchef today, needless to say he thinks it's a really good investment! looks the part and it wasnt an issue fitting it correctly on his massive head, lol.

Testing is the only way to properly validate if something is fast(er) and by how much, but there are other options. AeroCoach do their testing at Newport Velodrome and it is both cheaper than a tunnel and far better VFM as you'll get in more runs in the allotted time and you can actually is if a position is attainable. You can also test yourself using the Chung method.English Cycles V3 | Cervelo P5 | Cervelo T4 | Trek Domane Koppenberg0
