How do you like the Wiawis bike?
Simon Marquart: I like it a lot. It’s a really well-balanced bike. It provides enough comfort to ride around the track but is stiff enough for a really fast start.
With all the carbon on it, it must feel super light. Where do you see the benefit of having a light racing machine?
