Thanks for joining us, Pete 👍

Alex' attempt was just short of the Hour Record, but it was still an impressive ride and he found a huge step from his previous effort in 2015.

Tonight at 10pm UK time, Alex Dowsett will be attempting to break the Hour Record in Aguascalientes velodrome, Mexico 🇲🇽 Alex previously held the record back in May 2015 but the bar has since been raised to 55.089km.

Last week we were at the new Catesby Tunnel doing some aerodynamic testing on one of our custom-fit skinsuits (a Catesby Projects x Vorteq collaboration).

➡ 2740m long
➡ 8.2m wide
➡ 1:176 constant gradient
➡ 40 sqm working section

He's only gone and done it! 👊🌈 Ashton Lambie takes the Individual Pursuit gold medal to become the 2021 world champion, having also become the first person to break 4 minutes for the 4km pursuit in Mexico this Summer.

Next up for the Vorteq R&D team: Alex Dowsett will aim to take back the hour record next month at altitude in Mexico 🎯 55.089km is the goal.

He's done it!!! ⏱🇬🇧 Dan Bigham breaks a six-year old British Hour Record with a brilliantly paced effort at the Grenchen track in Switzerland.

54.526km to beat in 1 hour for Dan Bigham ⏱

Different athlete, different record attempt, same process 📉 Just like with Ashton's attempt at the sub-4 IP in Mexico, we've worked with Dan on optimising his suit for his geometry, target speed and conditions.

📉 Part 2 🤓 In this post, we explain the science behind why we had to make certain changes to Ashton's skinsuit and create a whole new specification for a record attempt at altitude:
