I saw a piece of history in Scottsdale AZ. A counterpoint presto, the
single seat bike from the early 90's. It is in very good shape. On sale

Did the Presto have the aircraft type front wheel fairing? [1]

After Counterpoint went out of business over a lawsuit, the Presto and
Triad designs were built for a while in England by Pashley as the PDQ
[2] and PDQ3 [3],respectively, while the Counterpoint Opus IV lives on
as the Bilenky Viewpoint [4].

Nope, It does have a small fairing in front of the pedals.
