Aerodynamics of bicycle frames and associated components
The present disclosure relates to a bicycle frame and associated bicycle components, and to reducing the aerodynamic drag of these. In one aspect, there is provided an elongate structural member of a bicycle frame, the member comprising a lengthwise extending leading edge, the leading edge comprising at least a pair of forwardly extending protrusions spaced apart lengthwise therealong. In one form, the protrusions comprise tubercles, a series of which are spaced apart lengthwise along the leading edge, and which further extend to at least one side of the leading edge so as to transition into a chordwise extending rib.
Saddle-riding-vehicle front part structure
A saddle-riding-vehicle front part structure includes: a suspension that is arranged at a rearward position of a steering shaft and at an upward position of a power source; a support shaft that supports the suspension and that is provided between a pair of right and left arms; and a cover that is provided between the steering shaft and the suspension and that covers a space between the pair of right and left arms, wherein the cover includes a pair of right and left first cover parts that correspond to the pair of right and left arms and a second cover part that corresponds to the suspension, and the pair of right and left first cover parts and the second cover part are displaceable independently from each other.
