Wout van Aert and Matteo Jorgensen of Visma Lease a Bike unleash a bold strategy at the Tirreno Adriatico time trial, sporting double Reserve Infinity disc wheels. Van Aert opts for a massive 1x aero chainring and a Giro Aerohead helmet, showcasing a full aero setup. However, the results fall short. Van Aert finishes 59th, 1:10 behind winner Filippo Ganna, while Jorgensen claims 16th, 44 seconds back. The use of double disc wheels is a rare sight in pro road time trials, often criticized for potential handling issues and wind susceptibility. Despite the risks, Van Aert remains unfazed, confident in his aerodynamic choice.
