Transcontinental Race (London - Istanbul) - #TCRNo4

I wonder if those carbon blobs provide any advantage over 'normal' framebags.

From seeing inside it, the tail blob had loads more useable, and accessible, space than a tail bag. It was like the boot on a small car - just open it up and pile stuff in. Also they should be more waterproof. My Apidura certainly wasn't - in fact none of my bags were.

For the frame blob, presumably the aeroz straight on are better as that carbon surface should be smoother and slipperier than a bag. But it might be worse in a cross wind, basically like a Trimble frame, which was meant to be very fast, as long as the yaw angle was no more than 5 degrees.
