Description

The UCI banned the "super tuck" position claiming that it was unsafe:

https://www.velonews.com/news/road/egan-bernal-michal-kwiatkowski-question-uci-priorities-in-wake-of-super-tuck-ban/

But it is quite unclear what criteria they use to determine the safety of such a position. It would be interesting to develop some bicycle models with different rider (aero) positions and rider-bicycle connections and determine if there is any effect on the open loop stability. Extending to closed loop could be interesting too, but we need a decent control model for these odd positions, which is likely different than normal positions.
