If you want to be faster, you better spend the money on tucking in stuff like drop bars for better aero. Then once that's done, go for lighter aero wheel that will spin faster easier.
once Drap and Dynamic weight is dealt with you can move to static weight.
Static weight affect mostly climbing a low speed.
sounds like u expect a faster record, which i hope. After the above setup i also lower the t-bar again to the lowest possible and notice the slightly move of CG forward, similar to the feel of my another road bike (not foldable). I just started cycling frequently for five months and still hope to break my records at my age of 54.
