A bicycle 32 has a front fork 40, within which the front wheel 36 is mounted, attached to the head tube 34. Extending downwardly from each end of a lateral member 41 are downwardly projecting forks 43, each comprising a primary portion 46, the respective primary portions extending downwardly and substantially parallel to each other. The longitudinal axes 31 of both the main portion 46 and a rider's lower leg 38 are aligned. By aligning the wakes created by the forks 43 and the lower leg 38 a reduction in overall system drag is provided. Additionally or alternatively, the rear wheel 56 may be provided between downwardly projecting stays 63, each comprising a primary portion 66, the respective primary portions 66 extending downwardly and substantially parallel to each other. By aligning the downwardly projecting stays 63 with the lower leg 38 beneficial drag reduction is achieved.
