The Crown Jewel of British Time Trialling

Yes

it does yes :)

​@@AlexDowsettOfficialHi Alex, are you able to say which bottle mount you use to have the bottles in that position? Cheers

The Scott is a great bike, and an engineering masterpiece, little things like the ability to change the rear axle fore/aft position to accomodate different tyre sizes, the integrated storage and fluid compartments etc. Unsurprisingly a touch heavy but I'm ok with that for UK tt'ing. I don't have any direct aero comparisons (testing bikes with people in is very difficult to do as positionally the positions need to be perfect) but my times around the Maldon 10 stack up really well compared with historical performances so I'd say it's definitely comparable to the Shiv and Hanzo but tough to pinpoint which is 'better.' per se.

Not at all, great observation! We’re playing with multiple iterations of the suit, working out what works best at what speeds and then what happens after washes as well. It could well be the same sleeves at Pog has, they’re testing fast!

Life balance this year has been tough, simply not trained as much as I’d have liked ☺️

@@AlexDowsettOfficial cheering you on, balance and joy in all aspects of life isn’t easy. Much respect.

They are indeed

We had mixed results with visors, I've got a big head though and the Poc visor doesnt fit me so it makes a decision for me

It's because the Tempor's visor is pathetically small and doesn't shield the eyes properly for some when the helmet is tilted back on the head for aerodynamics. Source: Owner of a Tempor

Not the O10/2 as that’s in North Notts, and no longer used. It was up near Newcastle somewhere.

@@Trevor.Adams640 thanks. I stopped racing in 2004 so out of touch. 😄

M101 in the North East (near Cramlington, Northumberland)

The floof fell off in the second half and i had not anticipated the workload that little thing carries!

It now exists as a frame set in my loft 👀

Bit harsh there with the tone of your comment. But seeing as I'm being accused of shilling nowadays on here (a term I hadnt even heard of until now) I'll give you the full explanation. If you'd watched closely in my 'failed' hour record testing videos you'd have seen the POC in it's perfect position with the tail flat to my back was fractionally faster than the HJC, but the HJC was fastest when head movement was involved. The CTT rather than UCI allows for more relaxed rules so I affix a magnet to the tail of the POC and under my skin suit to keep the tail down. Also, all of my HJC's are Israel branded as well so I'd rather use something plain and fast for now. One for you now. Maybe next time, be a bit nicer with your comments and ask what is a legitimate question in a better way instead of going in like a train with such animosity. Alex

Still weak...

@@AlexDowsettOfficialAlex ignore comments like that. Nothing but huge admiration for the hour attempt.

​@@AlexDowsettOfficial You're an inspiration and a great entertainer. I'm sorry to hear about it in this way, but can you share some details regarding the magnets in the tempor and skinsuit? That's a really interesting and cool thing!

I have thought about using a safety pin affixed to the tail of my hemet to force me to hold the correct position, magnets is a cleaner solution, any details would be appreciated. @@AlexDowsettOfficial
