In the design of the Air Speed we went beyond the Wind Tunnel, Studies have proved that about 20% of the aerodynamic drag depends on the bicycle used during competitions, while the remaining 80% is due to the athlete’s position on the saddle. The helmet is therefore a fundamental element to minimise the frontal area and to determine a better aerodynamic penetration through the air. Then came the wind tunnel testsNot only did we do three-dimensional simulation using CFD software, but we also took into account the numerous variables, especially in competitions, when the rider hardly remains on the saddle in the same position, moving the head countless times. Our designers found the perfect combination between aerodynamic advantage (wind tunnel test) and better dynamics both on open roads and in velodromes (tests in real-life environmental conditions). It was during one of the recent road training sessions in Calpe and indoor at the Valencia velodrome the Astana Team riders were able to really test the helmet where they were excited to find the Air Speed out performed some full TT helmets.
