So... will this be useful? I dont have testosterone levels memorize yet, but i think studies have shown show that transitioned person's have a 30% strength advantage even when low T(because of testosterone levels at puberty), right? I'm still trying to wrap my head around the data.

In a statement, UCI President David Lappartient said the new rules guarantee a “level playing field for all competitors.”
Nah because they’re still men.

On men's bicycles, painted pink.

With a men's narrower pelvis and men's stronger bones and skeletal muscles.

Some day, an FTM might win an ultra endurance event. Women's muscles recover faster. Of course, this woman will be banned from competing.
