Benefits of the fairing? A BikeE fairing reduces the air friction that you must overcome as you ride your BikeE by making it easier for the air to flow around you and your bike. Expect to add a few miles per hour to your cruising speed by installing a windscreen. 90% of the effort of a bicyclist traveling at 30 mph is used to overcome wind resistance. At 10 mph 2/3 of the effort goes into overcoming wind resistance. So even at low speeds aerodynamic improvements make an important difference. The BikeE fairing improves wet weather and cold riding by keeping you dryer and by keeping you warmer in the winter time. A fairing can extend your riding season and make it more enjoyable.
