Several years ago there was a tread about this. I forgot what the
factory was saying for the speed increase, I saw an increase of about
two knots on my monowheel. Several who had installed their's agree with
me, about 2 kts. Some reported higher speeds.
They are easy to install, You'll pick up some speed, and they do improve
the appearance under the wing. My guess they are more cosmetic, with
small increase in speed on my installation.

Subject: Europa-List: Mono speed kit
Would anyone venture an opinion regarding the quality and suitability
of the moulded parts included in the mono speed kit? At 375 UK pounds,
it seems a bit pricey, though perhaps worthwhile if everyone who's
installed it has found it to be the hot ticket. I have only vague
recollections of having seen them installed, and am wondering whether
the profiles are optimized for the aerodynamics or are they simply a
cosmetic add-on...(?)
