I'm myself a cat 2 racer. On a traditional bike, the last thing we're looking at is aero as most of the drag is coming from our position and aero effect is much reduced when drafting. We're looking at weight and stiffness. For individual efforts, time trials bikes are used. Heavier (17 lbs) but more aero.
