Not necessarily, but this is just a visual wind tunnel
That's the only type of wind tunnel I have ever used. I used it for my TT position, tweaking until I had a similar position to decent testers (Laurence Harding, Tony Martin, Peter Tadros, Fabian Cancellara, Michael Rogers etc). Not quite as clear cut with a frame but I don't see why the same principal shouldn't apply vaguely.
My hunch is that my Chinese friend bought a proper TT frame, scanned it and tweaked a bit before bunging into production.
As Jorj has said, you're not going to get a wind-tunnel tested frame for less than £2k and I am looking to spend a lot less.
These frames at least look clean, without the sculpty stuff on the early PX bikes and others. I would be surprised if a wind tunnel test didn't prove they have got the basics right.
