Any comments on why everyone is so concerned with saving a few grams and you
hear very little about the aerodynamic advantage of a bike frame and
components. It is so critical in time trialing and yet most bikes are round
tubes glued to round parts. I am mostly referring to high end carbon frames.
I can't tell the difference when riding with 2 full water bottles or 2
empty ones ( 2 - 3 pounds). I can however feel a slight improvement when
riding 20 + MPH with a frame I have that is quite aerodynamic, not one round
part on it but the steering tube.
