Video: Marcus Storck talks us around the Storck Aero 2 TT bike
Storck's Aero 2 prototype time trial bike was one of the undoubted stars of the bike show season and we were lucky enough to get talked around it for the video below by the man himself, Marcus Storck.
Designed by Marcus Storck for Ironman triathlete Faris Sultan – who is sponsored by Storck, the bike was due to be handed over to Faris for the start of the 2010 season, but the process was way ahead of schedule when we caught up with Marcus Storck at Eurobike. He talked us around the non-rideable prototype, but told us a rideable version would be displayed at Eurobike, and he would then be handing Faris a finished version in time for the Ironman World Championships in Hawaii. Faris didn't win, but if he had the new Aero 2 it won't have been down to the bike.
Check out the video as Marcus Storck talks us around this exceptional machines which combines low weight, low drag and with some very clever design features… and if you're from the UCI look away now!
road.cc's founder and first editor, nowadays to be found riding a spreadsheet. Tony's journey in cycling media started in 1997 as production editor and then deputy editor of Total Bike, acting editor of Total Mountain Bike and then seven years as editor of Cycling Plus. He launched his first cycling website - the Cycling Plus Forum at the turn of the century. In 2006 he left C+ to head up the launch team for Bike Radar which he edited until 2008, when he co-launched the multi-award winning road.cc - finally handing on the reins in 2021 to Jack Sexty. His favourite ride is his ‘commute’ - which he does most days inc weekends and he’s been cycle-commuting since 1994. His favourite bikes are titanium and have disc brakes, though he'd like to own a carbon bike one day.
