It is cheaper to get the 4 caps versus the 2 caps.....hmmm

It might work on the bicycle if all the spokes were teardrop shaped in section.

7 usd. Wonder how long it will take for your return of investment.

Flattened "aero" spokes are indeed a thing. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that "aero" valve caps have made their way to cars. :D

How much mass are we adding to get that aero benefit?

Natalya 02-15-2017 10:33 PM

Or one could just get some moonies and save some real MPG.

The 4pk is to fit Shraeder valves, the 2pk is to fit Presta valves.

I think I'll order 12 and put them in a row over the stubby antenna :)

I made a wing shaped sleeve for that antenna, but it took a few attempts to get it sturdy enough and even then it lasted just a year.
Also I could not distinguish its effect from my tank log.
