The Future of Aero and why 'peak aero' is as far away as ever

The Future of Aero and why 'peak aero' is as far away as ever

In this episode of Performance Process, host Ronan McLaughlin is joined by Ken Ballhause of Sync Ergonomics and John Pitman, Head of Aerodynamics at the Australian Centre for Sports Aerodynamics. Together, they discuss the custom aerodynamics and aero bars that contributed to Grace Brown’s World and Olympic Time Trial gold medals. They also dive into the cutting-edge advancements shaping the future of aerodynamics in cycling.

From “high-hand” positions and crank length to custom bike fitting techniques, they explore the intricate balance between equipment and rider optimisation.

Learn why "bolt-on" aero solutions offer only marginal gains and why the body and bike fitting are the place to start in looking for the biggest gains.
