What if I've already tested it? At the moment I'm at the limit of where I can bend down to. I actually went wider on the bars so I could get my head lower. I don't know what else to change (though I've been thinking about crank q-factor but this impacts power and can mess with knees) and I don't have time to test random body positions to see if they give better results. I need some aerodude to tell me and get instant yes/no verification, ie, wind tunnel time.
That's why kit is much easier - so long as it's actually faster. Which is why I'd love more data on it but no fucker will cough up the dosh to do an independent test of 10 disc wheels on my Shiv.

No perhaps, definitely. What if you knew that dropping your CdA from 0.2x to 0.2y would net you a guaranteed 20 miles in a 24 at no cost to your power output? Appreciate that for you comfort is much more of a factor than for someone like me, but you've got 6 months to adapt to any positional changes.
