TBH there's very little difference in the corner proper between these slightly different shape tracks, they're all pretty much 42 degrees; the variation is mostly in the easements which is what really makes a difference.

Ha, putting the chain on the wrong side of the bike does nothing.

I actually think the theory behind it is one of those "why didn't they think of that before" moments. Maybe it's like the rounder wheelsgate from 2012.

Aren't the black ones just the old style (pre-T5GB) bikes?

Chris Hoy just confirmed it. They are the old secret squirrel ones. The down tube is different from Cervelos - the cervelo's are much tighter to the rear wheel.
The secret squirrel was the nick name for the black bikes. Designed with Chris Boardman's help a few years back. BC had to offer the frames for sale to fit in with UCI regulations, but they made the frames stuipdly expensive.

Nope, they're not the old bikes, they're the old bikes? What are you on about? They're the UKSI aren't they?

Not quite what I thought - 4 rides with the fastest 2 in final and 3rd/4th fastest in Bronze ride off
