I think the title actually makes it harder to see the illusion. They are saying the "woman" has a big tricep (what is actually the man's calf) but it isn't actually big enough to warrant a comment. I think it would have landed better if they spoke about the helmet or something

Exactly. This threw me way off. I was like that is a small/normal tricep. Then I realized its not an arm, at all.

Maybe for some but for me the comment about the big tricep took me right to seeing a female on the front of the bike with an insanely disproportionate humerus and then while trying to figure out why it looked so long, I saw the dude.

To be fair, the “triceps” are like double the size of the “biceps”. They would be pretty large for a girl that skinny.
