Everyone says the drops are faster, but by how much? We rode the same bike twice, once on the hoods and once in the drops, and analysed both rides with Speed Lab in the Ryden Bike app. Getting low cut CdA by 6.7%, saving 9.3 W at 32 km/h. This is a considerable saving, especiallyl considering it's free!

Two great aero wheelsets, two riders, two bikes, one time-trial route. We used Speed Lab in the Ryden Bike app to find out whether a real-world test could pick out a consistent difference between the Zipp 454 NSW and the Hunt Aerodynamicist. It could: the Zipps came out slightly faster for both riders, saving 9.9 W and 1.9 W at 32 km/h.
