Fairings for Round Tubing
These lightweight fairings can cut drag on exposed round tubes by 80%, or even more!
Each fairing is constructed of high density expanded styrofoam, covered with a slippery mylar coated sailcloth.
Two styles are available
  • Permanent installation. Fairings can be slipped onto the round tubing and left there

  • Removable. Fairings are constructed in two halves and hinged at the front. After fitting the fairing like a clamshell over the tubing, a velcro strip on the trailing edge secures the two halves.  On larger tubes, additional clamping velcro strips are also required.

SHIPPING
For international parcel post and some Australian internal postage, fairings may need to be cut in half before shipping to less than 1m in length.  They may be glued back together using an epoxy glue, and the join sealed and camouflaged with some opaque tape.  Cross bar fairing cannot be cut in this way. Please discuss your shipping requirements with us.
