Wheels out velomobile design with Cd of 0.28



I have now achieved a Cd of 0.28 for the wheels out design. This should lead to a CdA of between 0.09 - 0.11 depending on final configuration. This design is a lot more practical while still being as aerodynamic as other production velomobiles. Chassis is well under way and will be finished before 2019. I am constantly having to keep tp my design goals which are...
• Low weight (under 22kg)
• Lower cost of production (hope to be under €2500 or US$3000)
• Safety (some crash protection)
• Practical everyday use velomobile.
