https://www.vehicularcyclist.com/kunich.html I have checked the latest statistics since this is an old study and it appears that nothing has changed.

Now, I do believe the Bontrager Wavecell helmet might actually work but they are not in wide enough use to show in the statistics.

Just following the U.S. lead where a American woman caught a tow to 90
MPH :-)

As an aside, it appears that real "go fast" bikes are using 17 inch
wheels.

I'm sure it is not unique to Australia.

I'd also say it is not at all a popular technique in Australia.
