Why this bike wins here
Aqueduc KOM is mountainous, with 30.0 m of climbing per kilometre, the kind of course where low weight usually counts for far more than aerodynamics. The Zwift Concept Z1 is an aero frame.

Extra watts are what the fastest setup needs to hold its pace on each surface rather than on tarmac, averaged over the ride - they appear once a ranked setup and mapped surface positions are there to simulate .
Zwift Concept Z1 / fixed disc wheels · 225 W · Solo · the timed segment, entered at racing speed as the finish estimate is. The line is this setup's simulated pace at every grade and surface change, over a faint elevation backdrop; the strip beneath marks the surface behind each dip.
