Aero Frame Or Aero Wheels | Which Makes You Faster?
Lightweight vs Aero is a question the cycling industry can't seem to agree on when it comes to bike tech.

We do some GCN Tech science, swapping aero and lightweight wheels between aero and lightweight frames, to see which combination is fastest and the results may surprise you.
