We have had some comments on this video instigated by a third party on KZread, which we would like to address briefly here. 1. We welcome criticism; all passions benefit from a multitude of voices, and criticism helps us do our job better. However, we do not condone personal abuse, particularly when that abuse stems from a difference in gender, background, race, religion etc. Life is stressful enough at the moment without our employees and associates logging in to find horrible and highly personal comments from someone they have never met or had any contact with. We hope everyone can agree about this. 2. All of our branded content and promotional videos are clearly marked as such. 3. Although it isn't directly relevant to this video, it is being mentioned by some commenters so: we absolutely support the lockdown in place by the UK government regarding coronavirus. Cycling is explicitly permitted by the regulations in place at the time of writing and we are abiding by them at all times. We do not view cycling as an inherently dangerous activity, and by following social distancing at all times we have never placed ourselves or others at risk, and we are riding with extra care in order not to place the NHS under any strain. Moreover, it should not be assumed that videos were filmed on the same day as they were published as we film ahead of time in order to reduce strain on our small team. We hope the above makes sense, and we'd like to thank all of our magazine readers, website visitors and KZread subscribers for their support during the current coronavirus crisis. We feel that our aim - to inspire, inform and entertain cyclists about their passion - is more important than ever at the moment, and we'll continue to try our hardest to deliver in these difficult times.

I don’t recall Hambini instigating or coordinating a vandetta, guess people are mature enough to understand the poor quality of your Engineering-science. You are using his (really) questionable language to hide a global technical non-sense from 2 journalists and one guy doing some basic aerowork. Now is is "rude" to anyone missleading cyclists, male, female, person or brand, not exclusively to your journalist. On the lockdown, you really need to review your common sense, training roughly 10hrs / week since the 23rd March as your journalist did IS irresponsable. GCN is for example really supporting proper lockdown. Shame on you

What specific difference do you think matters? The reduce range of yaw angles? This data is still useful for anyone who tends to compete in short (fast) TTs or who is very fast at long TTs or who competes in low wind situations (most road cyclists). Might not be good data for a triathlete (typically more exposed locations, later int he day, slower speeds)

He was good at he did and showed aptitude for other areas of F1 and in span of six years or so went on to help with design of another F1 car, became a principal. Two differentiating part of that story is that he started low and got high in a highly technical field and didn't state clearly wrong ideas to his customers (being the team, drivers, ...).

Cycling Weekly, is it true you ban aerodynamic experts from commenting on your aerodynamic testing videos? If yes, why would you do that?
I don't know what is worse. The 'expert' stating an enclosed velodrome is like the outdoors, or the fact that the 'tech' writers just looked like a pair of nodding dogs swallowing the nonsense he fed them. Did make me laugh that the baseline helmet was second best.
This video is in the « shit bag » category
It's always good to get a second opinion - Have you contacted Hambin? I know he's very good at the aerodynamics - Or don't you want to consult with people into real pro cycling.
so at 5:12 you say that you need vents at the front / high pressure zone to make the helmet faster, and then at 5:46 "fully closed option will obviously be the fastest". so which is it?

Great testing. Covered a lot of different aspects: helmets, speeds, rider positions. Reinforces the fact that the 'fastest' helmet isn't the fastest for everybody. Good luck to anyone trying to replicate this outdoors in varying wind conditions and topography. What a massive undertaking that would be. It also ultimately wouldn't tell you what helmet is best for YOU.
So what was the point of this test unless it was to promote the advertisers who pay for Cycling Weekly? You have an "expert" who has no aerodynamics expertise (other than stating a company called Aerocoach), testing in a "static" environment of a velodrome and claiming that that replicates the "real world" where side winds are an actual reality and ride in a "non-aero" fashion. I'm glad I haven't yet bought any #LeCol clothing, 'cos if they sponsor you they must be desperate...

From the front the frame would make minimal difference because of rider position being the dominant factor. In crosswinds drag would be awful. Forget the aero wheels we know they have more drag. HOWEVER round tubes are incredibly draggy in crosswinds due to simple physics. Big fat stagnation point, lots of flow detachment and turbulence. Drag increases exponentially for a round cross section relative to an aero cross section. If you'd like I can point you to some easy layman level documentation to understand this stuff

The negativity in this comment section is truly horrendous. I don't know what Hambini said in his video, but if watching him has that kind of effect on you, you should really stop and go for a ride instead. I really don't get all the comments saying that "the velodrome isn't comparable to the outdoors"... duh, neither is a wind tunnel. The main difference is yaw angle caused by wind direction, but that was simulated to an extent by having the riders turn their heads. Obviously it is impossible to have accurate and consistent aero measurements on the road, and a controlled environment can never be exactly similar, indeed it is meant to remove some variables from the equation.
i wonder how many people actually believe the bullshit that these people spurt out?

Amazing stuff! Thanks the answer to the question ('what is the best aero-helmet to wear sitting bolt up-right?') that no one is asking has been answered!!!
So, the take away is, no company can claim to have the fastest aero helmet!
I think it would be interesting to see how a highly scored entry level road bike frame (ex. Specialized Allez) with upgraded “training specs” (ex. Ultegra groupset and campy zonda wheels) performs compares to a stock super bike (ex. S-Works Tarmac). That’ll probably show the difference between a “training bike” and a “best-you-can-buy race bike” quantitatively.
Why on earth would you even consider how your helmet performs when looking sideways? I don't time that parameter, but my rides are mostly being done facing forwards. So should anyone who is eager to save those 5W. Just doesn't add much credibility in my book. Would have been ALOT more interesting testing them with wind from the sides; yaw angle from 0-90 degrees.

What a load of horse s#@+, there is nothing scientific or relevant about that content - taking areo biased road helmets and testing them in a velodrome, using questionable data fields. Conducted by a coach who doesn't appear to have any credentials in aeronautical engineering or testing. And the most insulting part is the so called journalism - it just regurgitated the marketing copy from the manufacturer.
Would the results differ if this test were repeated on an outdoor velodrome? The random vortical component of airflow would be better captured in that environment, while still enabling the test to occur at a steady speed and power on a controlled surface.
Cervelo S3, S5 SWORKS venge please
First off, it should be unnecessary to say this but I have no connection with Cycling Weekly or Aerocoach (or Hambini) though I've met Xav and I'm familiar with the testing method that he uses. Second, I've done a fair amount of testing outdoors on real roads under real world conditions, and also on the velodrome in much more controlled conditions -- and also have observed wind tunnel tests of the same equipment. In general, the results from all three are very close -- the differences are in the amount of time it takes and how easy it is to test different setups, not in particularly in the CdA you get. For example, a nice thing about testing on the road or velodrome is that your legs and body are moving and you're turning your head left and right and up and down whereas in the tunnel you're typically much more static. That said, the proof of a pudding is in the eating of it, and the predictions of speed for power you get in the tunnel or in the velodrome (or in field tests) match up very well against actual performance. Third, one needn't be an aerodynamicist to *measure* aerodynamic drag, just as a physician needn't be an electrical engineer or trained in fluid dynamics to measure heart rate. The people who designed the Track Aero System used in this test are indeed engineers (with PhDs in Aeronautical Engineering), statisticians, and physicists. In summary, I think this video is actually pretty well done, and there is good information here.
Didn’t the computer guy say that an open vent will allow pressure to pass and is better than a sealed front , yet Michelle said the exact opposite the next helmet where she said closing the helmet front vent will “ obviously make it faster “ ?

This makes no sense. He says the Trenta tested middle of the range for aero, yet the graphic for “Michelle” shows it to be the best performer, especially in a low position.
