Aero secrets with the Aerocoach, Xavier Disley
In this episode of Performance Process, we sit down with Xavier Disley, founder of Aerocoach, to dive deep into the world of aerodynamics in cycling.
Disley is the "Aerocoach" and brings a wealth of experience on going faster with no extra effort, having worked with athletes from local time trialists to Grand Tour winners, not to mention his own racing endeavours which include a Masters Individual Pursuit World Championship title.
On the industry side, his expertise span into aero testing, equipment development, a range of Aerocoach aero products including wheels, handlebars, plus various other components, and advising other manufacturers on how to create components that reduce drag and enhance performance.
Whether you're an already optimised competitive rider or just starting to think about aero, Disley shares invaluable insights on how to make your setup faster.
We discuss the critical aspects of aerodynamics, from clothing fit, rider position, and saddle angle, to choosing the right gear and our choice of tyre could be like adding an additional 1% gradient to your entire ride!
Xavier breaks down the key factors every cyclist should consider to reduce drag and increase speed. Plus, he reveals some practical tips and tricks to help you ride faster with simple and free, yet effective adjustments.
This is part one of a two-part series with Xavier, so stay tuned for the next episode, where we explore the world of aero testing—different methods, the pros and cons of each, and how they can help you take your performance to the next level.
