"Poor Man's" aero brake

[LoneStar]

FWIW, the p3c also has a headtube bulge

Which, interestingly enough, the P4 lacks. So, either Cervelo changed their thinking re. this feature, or there is a P4.X waiting in the wings that will utilize the integrated fork/brake/aero bar system that they have patented.

Remember, you heard it here first!

Interesting...
Is that why Gerard looked like he was going to choke on his tongue when I asked him that very question at Interbike during the P4 release - and he said "no" to the integrated fork/brake design?

I forgot to post!

I asked Gerard this question when this came up last week.

He said that the headtube fairing isn't gone (or missing). It is full length for the headtube.

You can kinda see it in the LARGE photos on cc or their own site. look for the CL of the fork/stem and then notice how far out the front of the headtube is...
