I do not think any of us have tuft tested this solution, but someone should know the answer.
While a full front skirt may be ideal, how much benefit would we get from a fender flare made out of rubber that would be a perfect contour to the curve of the tire which eliminates the gap of air between the tire and fender.
This allows for full suspension clearance and if made from rubber or other durable plastic any friction made by contacting the tire would just slowly wear the rubber or plastic away.
Would eliminating the turbulent air between the tire and fender be as beneficial as a full skirt if paired with moon disk caps?
