![]() ![]() Between them, the four brought more than 20,000 hours of wind tunnel experience to the project. Yu worked with longer-tenured Specialized employees Mark Cote, Chris D’Aluisio, and Chuck Teixeira to design and develop the tunnel. To build a tunnel that could match A2’s precision, Specialized recruited Chris Yu, a PhD candidate at Stanford University in the field of High Fidelity Flow Simulation. In the past, like other bike companies interested in measuring their bikes’ aerodynamics, Specialized engineers traveled with their prototypes to test facilities including the A2 Wind Tunnel in North Carolina. The visually striking new facility will immediately become central to the company’s ongoing mission of improving aerodynamics across a broad range of its products, and makes the company the only bike brand with full control over its own aero testing. Specialized’s latest aero innovation is not a bike, a wheel, a skin suit, shoe cover, or helmet it’s a wind tunnel at the company’s Morgan Hill campus. ![]()
