Video: Baggy shorts versus Lycra aerodynamics test
Specialized goes inside the wind tunnel to examine the aero difference between Lycra and baggies.
Are you a slave to fat tire fashion? Is Lycra a dirty word in your riding circle? Well turns out your apparel choices just might be slowing you down. The folks at Specialized decided to find out, and went inside their wind tunnel with multi-time Xterra world champion Conrad Stolz to examine the difference between wearing baggy shorts and a loose top versus rocking the full-on XC race kit. Have a look.

Just for fun, Specialized also took a look at the various ways to carry a six pack while riding your bike. This might seem trivial, but hey, no one likes to drink warm beer.
