I struggle to believe the numbers they put in the marketing because you see so many guys (who have the choice) still choosing not to ride the aero bikes.
The "old" 2015 Venge just before the re-design.

Coach has a Look 795 - great bike.
Junior will likely have a Trek for a few summer races - Emonda, not Madone
Team USA bikes are round tube Felts.

I would think an aero bike for shorter races is a great choice. I think the ride becomes a much bigger deal on the rougher roads and longer rides.
