Minion Posted November 5, 2010 Share There doesn't appear to be any regulation excluding them from TTs:http://www.uci.ch/Mo...=34033&LangId=1 (p56 onwards) They are illegal for normal road races, unless they appear on this list:http://www.uci.ch/Mo...jQxNjY&LangId=1 Edited November 5, 2010 by Edman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Luke. Posted November 5, 2010 Share 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. http://cdn.media.cyclingnews.com//2009/07/23/2/bettiniphoto_0041739_1_full_600.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
