New fastest bike on earth

[Anton Bollebakker]

First post and starting a new thread..

Would like your opinion on this, found a new a german time trial thing on http://www.fiets.nl and the manufacturer, storck, claims it to beat all the others. Does anyone know anything about it?

Details, specs, riders?

Sorry, can't read it either..

Looks nice but nothing too out of the ordinary for a modern TT machine. Interesting mainly that it's Di2 specific, but I assume we'll see more of that this year.

I think "fastest bike in the world" is actually whatever bike Fabu is sitting on right now, the engine is what counts.

and I suspect this thread belongs in bikes and gear, not procycling as I don't think Storck do that much int he way of top level team sponsorship.

I moved this to a more appropriate sub-forum.

I'm sure it means in a windtunnel, under certain conditions, it's Cd is the lowest ever, altho I'm sure it's a frame maker claim, not a claim from an independent tester that tested a slew of bicycles, w/o a rider. It's like saying a F1 car body, or aircraft, has the lowest Cd in a windtunnel and not saying anything about the engine or engines in the car or aircraft.
