sepeda jenis berbaring

Pengendara sepeda berbaring atau telentang. Keterangan dan gambar ada pada Wikipedia.

If the rider is sitting upright, the rider's body creates about 75% of the total drag of the bicycle/rider combination. Drag can be reduced by seating the rider in a supine position or a prone position, thus creating a recumbent bicycle or human powered vehicle. Drag can also be reduced by covering the bicycle with an aerodynamic fairing.
