everyone calling for the wheel to be slammed, far back is more aero. If it's good Enough for Gregory etc
Why have the cut out in frame if your not going to fill it with wheel? Srs q
Look have tested it and found a gap to be more aero.
I forget the exact deets/tech terms, but broadly speaking as the air attached to the tyre is pulled into the gap, if it's too tight then it stalls as it's squeezed out.
Scilly is right, and about 10-12mm gap is optimal.
