I would like to ask if there are any aerodynamic modifications that would do any good for a typical bicycle (in my case this is a diamond frame road bicycle)?

I'm doing 20 km two-way trips every day with little stops.

I've seen some mods like wheel and frame fairings (a flat plate fitted into the front triangle of the diamond frame).

Would a front screen be a good idea?

What about side-wings?
