Draft also depends on your speed does It not? It fizzles out at the lower speeds. I don't know any absolute values but I think below about 25km/h?? it might start fading away. I don't doubt that A&K are whizzing along appropriately quickly.

It's not something that I've got any personal experience of.

Makes a difference tucking in behind a mate on a ride. Even just two or three, you take turns. Does help a lot.

Even better to tuck in on the goat a beat then on thr climbs....
That's why I've no mates!🤣🤣🤣

It's exponential will drag is and therefore drafting is the inverse!

Nah it is still there. You could go about 15% faster at the same effort in the mid 20s. If solo 25 km/h, you would be up to about 28km/h same effort drafting The percentage increase in speed decreases the faster you are travelling.
