The spirit of this board is to compile and organize wheels and tires related discussions.

If a new wheel tech is released, (say for example, TPU tubes, a brand new tire, or a new rim standard), feel free to start the discussion in the popular "Road". Your topic will eventually be moved here!

New wheels coming from a brand that currently doesn't make wheels. The rim is asymmetric and it has what I can best describe as 2D tubercles (also asymmetric.)
Interesting, so kinda a return of the golf ball dimples that was popular for a while?
I'd guess it's a frame manufacturer who currently outsource their wheels but will start producing in house, someone like Canyon...

No, not a major brand, they don’t sell bikes. This is a brand that already sells an innovative product in one category.

The “2D tubercles” are only on the inside edge of the rim. The sides are smooth.

Thats's interesting. Tripping the air as the rim becomes the leading edge.
