Abstract

We developed a new suit for Tokyo 2020Olympic and Paralympic cycling road races. Several clothes were tested by using a truncated cone wrapped with cloth in the wind tunnel. On the basis of the drag measurements, several pilot suits were made. They were tested by using a full-scale mannequin which can pedal the bike in the wind tunnel. Finally, we succeeded in developing the new suit for Tokyo 2020Olympic and Paralympic cycling road races, which is superior to Beijing model.
