The camera bikes have no windshield and rely entirely on synthetic vision via monitor(s).
The Delft University (world's fastest bike) is set up this way.
Here is a badly focused shot of Delft's upper body with dual camera pod
Here is the bikes lower half.The rider would have no forward vision because of the mechanicals if not for the camera system.The loss of the canopy perturbation allows for a laminar boundary layer over more than 66% body length on a calm day.
