What to study

Curiosity Gap

Hidden motors have been a scandal and a suspicion in pro cycling for years. 'We've Done It' says they've made one work. The thumbnail points at an ordinary-looking race bike, so the question is where the motor is hiding.

How the packaging works
Title

Two short sentences with full stops read like a verdict, and capitalising IS answers the people who say it can't be done.

Thumbnail

At feed size the black bike on deep red looks completely normal, so THE CHEAT BIKE and the arrow point at a motor nobody can see.

Remix this

When you've tested a claim your field argues about, state the verdict in the title in two short sentences. Show the object looking completely normal under a label and arrow, so the hidden part is the reason to click.
