Yes we have done - for pros it’s an easy sell (to the team staff) but for the everyday roadie they’ve mostly got aero allergies. That is the group the Boardman centre is looking to bring in, time will tell whether a Performance Centre is intimidating or not to those people.
As an aside, we were in Amsterdam last week for some closed door discussions with Garmin, DC Rainmaker was there and we ran him through a session - very switched on guy.

If I was a domestic pro I’d be doing it. It’s a no brainer. There must be serious watts of saving in road position.
The wind tunnel makes a good apparatus for testing sprinters too. And given how sprints are lost by millimetres it’s worth it.
I did consider if it was worth it for ultra racing bike. But I concluded that at 15mph it’s not going to be huge savings.

I wonder how long it is before aero testing of road bike positions goes more mainstream. You must have seen quite a few pros for that. Especially those that win solo or breakaway riders.
