"Using the aerodynamic analysis software from A Faster You was a game changer during my Hour Record attempt at the Velodrome in Grenchen. When every fraction of a watt matters, this tool helped me identify exactly where I could gain those crucial metres. I'd recommend it to any athlete who wants to ride faster and smarter."

Outdoor Testing
Flexible testing solution for athletes - conduct tests on your own schedule
Independent Testing
Athletes can test anywhere with a suitable 1km route
- Test on any flat 1km route with minimal traffic
- Same aeroAPP guidance and automation
- Advanced wind calculation and correction
- Wind gust detection and filtering
- Automatic data sync to team account
- Machine learning-based validation
Outdoor Testing Requirements
- Flat 1000m route with minimal elevation change
- Low traffic for safety and consistency
- Moderate wind conditions (< 20 km/h recommended)
- Stable weather conditions during test
While outdoor testing is more accessible, velodrome testing provides the highest precision due to controlled conditions.
Outdoor Test Protocol
Each test consists of two identical runs (outbound and inbound) for wind cancellation:
Outbound Run
Accelerate to target power (typically 200-300W)
Start recording at defined marker point
Maintain constant power and position for exactly 1000m
Mark end position (turn-around point)
Turn around safely
Inbound Run
Accelerate to same target power
Return run with constant power and position
Stop at original start marker
aeroAPP validates data and calculates CdA
Repeat for additional setups or validation
Why Two Runs?
Riding the same distance in opposite directions mathematically cancels wind effects, allowing accurate CdA measurement in outdoor conditions.
Systematic Optimization
The simplest aerodynamic gains come from systematic equipment testing. Even basic changes like aerodynamic water bottles can yield significant time savings.
Test helmets, skinsuits, wheels, and position changes systematically. Our software enables professional teams to make data-driven equipment decisions.
Common Optimization Areas:
- Helmet selection and positioning
- Skinsuit and clothing optimization
- Wheel and equipment selection
- Body position and bike fit
- Accessory optimization
Different Ways to Test Your Aero
Compare aero testing approaches and find what fits your setup.
| Testing Approach | Software-based Testing | Dedicated Aero Hardware |
|---|---|---|
| How Do You Measure CdA? | Your power meter + algorithm | Dedicated sensors on bike |
| Where Can You Test? | Velodrome and outdoor | Velodrome and outdoor |
| Rolling Resistance Measurement | Included in analysis | Different focus |
| Live Feedback While Riding | Via Garmin app | Via device or app |
| Testing Protocol | Guided step-by-step | Self-directed |
| Repeat Tests at Same Spot | Routes saved automatically | Manual setup each time |
| Team Sharing | Coach dashboard included | Export required |
| What Do You Need? | Power meter you already have | Additional hardware purchase |
| Investment | Free for outdoor testing | €800-950 upfront |
| Best For | Athletes who want quick, affordable aero insights | Athletes wanting dedicated measurement hardware |
Both approaches help you get faster. Choose based on your budget and testing needs.
The key difference: professional aero testing with gear you already own.
