AMDparts In looking at your yellow recumbent bike I see one area you have neglected and that is the underside of the bike beween the wheels. What I have done on my bikes; and recomend you do is to install a underbody that goes from close behind the front wheel to the centerstand then cover the underside of the centerstand. this may improve FE by 5%. I use 2mm aluminium for my street bikes and 3mm aluminium for my duelsport bikes.
