I know Maguns Ditlev used to ride one with great sucsess - https://www.tri247.com/...ia-frd-magnus-ditlev

but obviously sponsorship deals mean he cannot ride it any more. No other information I am afraid.

He who understands the WHY, will understand the HOW.

I can't tell if it's the camera moving or not but looks like there's some serious flex in that aerobar project.

That's 100% a 2-spoke wheel, though hard to tell (for me at least) whether it's a RON prototype, an existing 2-spoke wheel (M5, Falcon, Stiffi), or a different unannounced wheel. Actually, the Stiffi shape is pretty distinctive so it's not that. I think most likely a RON prototype.

I asked what it was and got a "secret project" answer.

Agreed, the more I look at it, the more I'm inclined to think its a twin spoke

Nice find. It does look like the era of tri-spokes and two-spokes is returning, perhaps the wider forks and seat stays, due to disc brakes, is helping aerodynamics on the frame-wheel combo. Any insight on this?

I thought the same, but if you look at the background 'shrubbery' or whatever the hell it is, the angle definitely changes. If not, I sure as hell hope the material is resilient.

Pretty surprised they would be making a rim brake version at this point.

One of the pictures on the front page of their website clearly shows a disc brake version of the twin spoke wheel.

2 Spoke Wheel launching on the 30th according to their socials

Available to preorder:

https://ronwheels.com/gb/wheels/115-1538-ultron.html


899€ for steel bearings / 989€ for ceramic bearings.


Surprised on the weight, a little heavier than their 90mm front spoked wheel - so not for the weightweeinies then.


They also have a carbon disk rotor to go with it, which is a very reasonable 50€ a piece, but on looking isn't as quite polished as the carbon-ti carbon rotor (but these are 200€+) and it appears to me to be added to the side of the rotor, not actually replace the spider.


Who's buying?

I've raced with the original Two Spoke for a while. I did test it in the tunnel and it didn't do amazing, but I think it looks cool, so have stuck with it. I would like a tubeless wheel though . . . I've never heard of this company Ron wheels, are they well regarded?

i bought the disc wheel (disc brakes) a month ago
i ll use it for the first time in few week in a 70.3 and report here

From the bits I’ve had off them (their Aeron X disc and Aeron V8 front wheel. They are a good mix of quality, performance and price point. Very popular in the UK and around Europe it seems with a few podium winners on their wheels too.

I was looking at adding the 90mm rear V8 wheel to the front V8 I have for general use and then getting this new two spoke to go with the disc for racing. But at 990€ I’ve gone a bit cold on the idea as reading about other 2 spoke / 3 spoke wheels I’m not going to gain much performance over the 90mm.

Does look neat thou. Not 990€ neat mind.

i have the disc wheel and the aero bars. both good quality products!

It's out: https://ronwheels.com/...none/44-tire-no_tire

They are based in Poland, making all their wheels locally. I have seen their wheels at some Ironman races I did recently. I got set of 60mm wheels with ceramic bearing from them for training and also their top disk wheel Aeron X. I used it in IM Texas and loved it. Those training wheels i got are also good performance not as smooth as 858 NSWs i use for racing but are fast. No regrets so far and btw customer service is good even though there is 7h time difference from CST. Usually next day reply

I preordered the Ultron front and await delivery.
Already have a Aeron V8 front and Aeron X disc - so ordered a AeronV8 rear with the Ultron to have a V8 set for riding and then the Ultron / AeronX for racing. Customer service response for me is slow thou, even in the same time zone.. 2 weeks so far no responses to my messages
