I'm still not getting it. Unless I dreamed it unfaired Recumbents have beaten Boardman's record. And nobody cared as it is a different class of bike. The "golden record is the "uci rules record". The Pros care about that record under a stringent set of rules where all are equal but the human. The concept is the fastest "rider" not fastest bike. If speed is the objective why not just use e-bikes?
It's a human powered record. If it's the fastest rier? why not freeze the design from 1930s? no carbon fiber, no almunium, etc.
