How many Kona pros are on Revolver wheels? Is it just Skipper or are there more?

Quite the project to create a wheel that will maybe see 10 of them sold. Always happy to see brands push the limits, though.

I’m not sure that haven’t merely stuck two side panels over the top of the existing open mould tri spoke they also sell.

I don't know if you're joking or not, but if I've heard correctly, HED has tested a trispoke. I'm hoping it's released soon.

IM should just drop the disc ban. A 90mm front is a lot sketchier than a rear disc, and these "letter of the law" workarounds really make a joke of the rule.

If they are serious about a disc ban (again, poor choice IMO) then have a max rim depth (and max spoke thickness.....because see below) to actually ban discs.
