80% of aerodynamic force or drag of
the cyclist is caused by the position of the rider,
the remaining 20% by the machine.
On a cycling level we have accompanied several cyclists throughout the year,
both the teams we sponsor and the triathlon athletes,
to optimize their aerodynamic posture on the bike.
To improve much more the aerodynamics of the bike,
we decided to bring the fork legs and the bases of the bike as close as possible to
the wheel in order to minimize to the maximum any space,
to reduce spaces between the structural parts of the frame and the mobile parts of the bike.
If this were a bike, going forward in this direction
is not the same as going forward like this.
There are two differences, one would be the aerodynamic coefficient
as the penetration in this direction is less and the other would be the projected area,
the projected area is less in this case than in this case
and as such the resistance to this advance imposed by the air is much greater.
We can say that, in fact, on a projected representation of the bike, looking at it from the front,
we will have a sensation of compact,
a compact vision of the bike that is much more interesting
and that will give fluidity to the whole unit on the road.
We can say that the more compact the whole unit
is from a frontal point of view, the more we gain in aerodynamism,we gain in fluidity and
it is better on the road. Through the AIZONE project we are working to reduce the projected area
and also to reduce the aerodynamic coefficient.
The idea is to come a little bit closer to the spirit of time trial,
to look for the aerodynamic spirit, a better penetration in the air and fluidity.
Orca is the result of a team who has been working
for many years to obtain the best product,
and I believe we have the fastest bike on the market.
All this has enabled us to make the most stable and the fastest bike on the market.
