Subject: Hed trsipoke 3D disc
I am doing a conversion project to take a tri-spoke to a disc by filling in the 3 holes. I know HED did this back in 2002, but other than the interview with Steve Hed and a couple random internet pictures cannot find anything else about the wheels.

I was hoping somebody might have aero data on the wheel and might be able to contribute something to my limited history of the wheel.


Thank you!

It was supposedly better than the flat discs, but not as good as any of the lenticular shaped discs. Never really took off as the market had already started to move away from flat discs…

I can't recall ever seeing any aero data published, but I bet it would be slower than a HED Jet Disc, but maybe slightly faster than a RennSpeed.

I have recently thought of doing something like this myself, wasn't sure whether it would be worth attempting to do with the simplicity of getting wheel covers these days.

Gotta say, it looks solid!

Fast forward to now after many triathlons and marathons, my back is worse than ever. What helps lumbar back issues? Shots, physical therapy, surgery?

Should I remove the PD Jammers bars and ride it as is, set-up for riding in the drops and hoods? Should I run my Easton Orion II wheels or my Hed Jet60 C2's for IMWI?

I know that annular tears mean there is a risk for a bigger disc blow-out. How do I continue to train and compete without putting myself at risk for worsening of my injury?

I started having trouble a couple months ago with a tightness and almost numbness in my anterior left leg and top of foot during running. It feels sort of dead.

A few years ago, I was diagnosed with two lumbar herniated discs (L1-L2). I have started a very slow build towards my first tri. Are there any recommendations or warnings I should heed?
