Hands up or hands down? We’re talking about the different time trial riding positions. There are pros and cons for both, watch the professionals and even they are divided, so how do you work out what is the best position for you?

We visited the Silverstone Sports Engineering Hub to try and find the answer, using the wind tunnel to measure the difference in the aerodynamics between each position. 

It isn’t that black and white though, so we’ve also be got the help of an expert to interpret these results and make them relevant to even the average age group triathlete!
