    The crucial edge a bicycle racer has is always a well guarded secret in a racing. The Australian team has selected the new BT Blade as its endurance rider’s bicycle and the sprint cyclists will use the ‘BT Stealth’ variation. The bicycle would ensure Australia’s cyclists line up with the most technologically advanced bikes at the Olympics in August. After worrying about the best suite to wear and not end up cheating while swimming the bicycle completes our biathlon for this Olympic season.


    Designed with aerospace expertise, the bicycles were tested in wind tunnels so to develop optimal aerodynamic carbon frame shapes it will give Australian cyclists the edge at this year’s Beijing Olympics.
