I've said it before, now I'll say it again; if the objective is to save time, aero equipment saves more time for a slower rider than a faster one. (www.analyticcycling.com) Shoe covers are just as effective at reducing drag for a 15 km/hr rider as they are for the 40 km/hr one. What magical transformation do you think happens at 40 km/hr or thereabouts?
