Hmmmmmm. Any physics people want to comment?
"Some teams are racing with hookless rims. This crash is why the CPA are 100 percent against hookless rims. Tires should not come off a rim. The maximum PSI these hookless tires can have put in them is 73, and if you hit something for sure it goes above the maximum 73 PSI rating on impact. That is why tires are coming off.”
Really?????

Never cheer before you know who is winning
I know of a 3 people that use Zipp353.. 2 no issues so far and one guy yes his tire came off his 353, but I have no details. The one guy I do know well uses 28mm tires and races often.(strong Cat2)
I've been hookless since Enve4.5AR were released (25mm internal) hell the only rim that let go of a tire for me was Roval CLX50

great reasons not to ride hookless: https://road.cc/content/news/cpa-not-ha ... ash-306947
There has been AT LEAST three separate televised hookless blowoffs this season already. And we're not even in March yet. And all of the ones that have happened this season have been on smooth roads.goodboyr wrote: ↑Sun Feb 25, 2024 2:54 pmHmmmmmm. Any physics people want to comment?

There were also a number of them last season.
We'll see in UCI does anything. Not sure even UCI can ban hookless rims in peleton (and if that is indeed the core safety issue here).
I suspect it'll take a serious incident in a high profile Tour stage for tyre issues to be taken more seriously.

They could revoke approval from all hookless wheels. Or just make up new rules. They're the governing body, if they say you aren't allowed to ride hookless wheels in UCI races then that's how it's going to be.
Usually the only way the UCI will act is if the main purveyors [of hookless] - SRAM, Enve and Giant - have failed to pay sufficient tribute.
But if Pogaçar has a blowoff at the TdF, that might change. Which would be a little awkward as supposedly, at least according to the marketing spiel, he's been an Enve fanboi for years and was instrumental in getting his team on them.
