In the arena of time trials and triathlons, seconds are currency—and the FFWD DISC-T Tubular is engineered to make every one of them count. This high-performance rear disc wheel is designed for elite riders who demand nothing less than maximum aerodynamics, minimum weight, and flawless stability. Whether you’re chasing a podium finish or looking to break your personal best, the DISC-T is the edge that delivers.
Dominate the Clock with Aerodynamic Precision
The FFWD DISC-T is aerodynamically uncompromising, shaped and refined through computational fluid dynamics and wind tunnel testing. Its full disc profile eliminates turbulence caused by spokes, allowing smooth airflow along the entire wheel. This reduces drag significantly and helps maintain higher average speeds, especially in flat or rolling terrain where aero advantage is crucial.
The rim’s design is optimized for seamless integration with tubular tires, offering the lowest rolling resistance and superior ride feel. The result is an ultra-fast wheel that glides through the wind like a scalpel through silk—delivering unmatched performance during solo efforts against the clock.
Lightweight Construction with No Compromise
At only 985 grams, the DISC-T is one of the lightest rear disc wheels on the market. This weight advantage is a game-changer during acceleration, out-of-saddle surges, or terrain transitions. FFWD achieves this through expert layups of premium carbon fiber, where stiffness and durability are preserved without unnecessary grams.
Despite its low weight, the wheel maintains exceptional lateral rigidity, ensuring that every watt of your pedal stroke is efficiently transferred into forward momentum. That means faster starts, sustained speed, and the confidence to push harder when it matters most.
Stability You Can Trust
Riding in the aero position demands a wheel that inspires confidence—not one that fights crosswinds. The DISC-T offers superior crosswind stability, achieved through an intelligently contoured design and even weight distribution. Whether you're slicing through gusts on a coastal course or threading a technical TT circuit, the DISC-T provides steady, composed handling.
Built for Disc Brakes, Designed for Modern Rigs
The centerlock disc brake interface ensures smooth, consistent braking in all weather conditions—a must for modern triathlon and time trial bikes. This setup not only improves control but also enhances safety without compromising aerodynamics.
