Storage that works with the airflow—integrated, accessible, and purposeful.
Designed for long days where every watt saved and every gram earned matters.
The premise
/ 01
Traditional bags and bolt-ons solve a carrying problem while often creating a drag problem. CyclingFoils explores a different answer: devices whose volume, placement, and profile are developed together—so utility becomes part of the aerodynamic solution.
From question to concept
Bike, rider, course, duration, carried equipment, access needs, and the problem worth solving.
We look at the bicycle and rider as one aerodynamic system—not a collection of isolated parts.
Candidate shapes are analyzed to understand pressure, separation, wake behavior, and tradeoffs.
The useful concept must also be stable, serviceable, manufacturable, and appropriate for long-distance riding.
Design priorities
CyclingFoils is not about decoration or broad performance claims. It is about disciplined exploration: using engineering tools to develop useful devices, understand their tradeoffs, and create better starting points for testing.
Shape and placement begin with the pressure field around bike and rider.
Space for tools, nutrition, power, hydration, or mission-specific equipment.
Accessibility, stability, comfort, and serviceability matter over long hours.
Ideas are framed as concepts until simulation and physical testing support them.
Why CyclingFoils
CyclingFoils brings an aerospace-style development mindset to bicycle aerodynamics: define the mission, model the system, challenge assumptions, and learn from the data.
The project focuses on practical aero concepts for riders who carry more because they ride farther—especially endurance and ultra-distance cyclists.
