Hmm... Now thats interesting....Computer cover is on the list; mirror fairings, too. Anyone ever try a derailleur fairing?

Seems like it could have a good impact on a CB, with the derailleur being up front and all...
It seems like the wide fork, boom, wide bars, and drivetrain blow an awfully big hole through the air. The MBB format is worth it in most circumstances, but in terms of outright speed it seems like it could be a hindrance. There are fast Strava segments where I can't match the speed over 2-4 miles that I did on my Metabike highracer, even producing much more power now than I did then.
That bike was skinny and had its parts tucked up out of the wind. Many of the fastest 'bent riders that I follow are on similar bikes (CHRs or the like).
Doing so caused a recurrence of "Death Grip" for me that had my fingernails hurting on a few fingers yesterday and today.Agreed, rotating the bars forward would be more aero but it cramps up my wrists something awful after more than 20 miles.
