    I don’t understand the fundamental issue with supertuck. Is it the speed that’s achievable in the position that presents the problem? If so, introduce a speed limit.

    Riders appear to be in control in supertuck, with full access to brakes.

    Supertuck allows a tall rider to achieve a similar aerodynamic profile to a small rider. There’s a case to be made that the UCI is being heightist.

    Could these rules get the UCI cancelled?

  • If so, introduce a speed limit.

    Wait, what? It’s a race. How the hell would you enforce it? What sanctions would you incur for breaking it?

  • That’s my point. Banning supertuck is like banning trying to win.

    I do support banning it in a group, I guess. But descending alone, it’s your risk to take in exchange for speed.
