Howzit guys,

 

are tri spokes UCI TT legal for time trial events. I know for tri's they arent legal anymore.

Pretty sure they're legal. LA and Contador both used tri-spoke front wheels in the Tour ITT. I think the rule is your front wheel needs to have at least 45% of the surface area open - for obvious safety reasons.
