GO FAST. OR FASTER...
For triathletes and Time Trial specialists only two things matter when talking about wheelsets. It needs to be Fast and Light! The FALCON DISC and RYOT55 brings these with Confidence.
In our development for the perfect DISC we've spent much time finetuning the details. It resulted in a stunning light disc wheel of only 1040 grams. The hooked rim design of the FALCON DISC measures 23mm internal and 28mm external. It can be perfectly used with all tire setups from inner tubes to tubeless with a minimum recommended tire of 25mm.
The FALCON is designed around a completely new production method. It uses a hollow core and PMI (polymethacrylimide) foam sandwiched carbon fiber side walls. This structure is known for its strength and stiffness combined with light weight, achieving a significant weight reduction.
RYOT55 Front Wheel
In this set, we have added to the Falcon DISC the RYOT55. The RYOT55 front wheel is Ultra-light, with super fast acceleration, and sublime driving characteristics. These full carbon front wheel with a high rim profile offer both great looks and comfort on whatever surface you ride on.
The fastest in wind tunnel tests, beating all wind angles. Okay, the looks certainly help, but with maximum stiffness and aerodynamics, the RYOT55 will make you really finish any job.

What riders say about FALCON DISC + RYOT 55
15 minuten sneller op een Ironman en dat geluid is onbetaalbaar 🔥
Als triatleet op weg naar Kona-kwalificatie ben ik dit seizoen overgestapt op de FFWD Falcon disc + Ryot 77 en het verschil is meteen merkbaar. Tijdens een recente aerotest bleek de wielset een 19,4% lagere CdA te hebben ten opzichte van mijn Bontrager wielset. Dat vertaalt zich naar bijna 15 minuten tijdwinst over een volledige Ironman bikeleg. Maar los van de data: de wielen zien er gewoon heel vet uit. En dat geluid van de Falcon disc is echt bizar. Dat alleen al maakt fietsen een stuk leuker 😎. Zeer blij met deze set en ik zou hem zonder twijfel aanraden aan elke triatleet die serieus bezig is met zijn fietsprestaties. 🔥
RYOT 77 + FALCON DISC
Wheels look fantastic on the bike. Delivery was quick and although I had to pay Customs and Duty(UK VAT 20%) charges payable to UPS it was all sorted out later by FF using their extremely simple refund process. First TT with the new wheels just done and they felt fast and smooth on our fairly bumpy roads. Looking forward to the next one tomorrow night in what will be ideal conditions(warm and a light breeze). Paul.
WOW what a set!
WOW is all I can say about these wheels!!! Sound of them is something else
Super happy en zeer tevreden mee
Super happy en zeer tevreden mee. Sneller dan het licht.
Great addition!!!
This disc was a great addition to my Cervelo P-Series and it’s the first FFWD wheel I’ve owned. So far, I am very impressed. I’ve ridden a couple training rides to get a feel for riding with a disc, but the real test will be this weekend. Flat, fast course that I am hoping to get a PR on. First impressions: the wheel is super light yet sturdy, and the hub is fantastic. I went tubeless with it to better deal with thorns in AZ and WA, and my LBS had zero issues getting it dialed for my bike. The order processing and shipping was quick and secure (via UPS), the payment options met my needs, and the communication following my order confirmation were perfect! This entire interaction and quality of the wheel are making me consider FFWD for a new training wheelset, too.
Vijf sterren!
Super snelle set met strakke uitstraling. Gecombineerd met 65cm normaal geslaakt voorwiel. Enorm tevreden, zowel service als kwaliteit!
FALCON DISCSuper fast good looking wheels!
I was looking for a good set for my TT bike. I received excellent service. I've been riding them for almost a year now. Super stiff, lightweight and feels very fast!
Top Falcon disc wheel
On my first race with my new FFWD disc wheel already a PR on full distance triathlon (Ironman Emilia-Romagna)
FALCON DISCVan oud naar nieuw.
Door ongelukje een nieuw wiel moeten kopen. Had een oudere FFWD disc en dan nu de nieuwe Falcon. De verbeteringen hebben niet stil gestaan bij FFWD! Merkbaar voor mij; minder zenuwachtig (zeker bij meer wind) op rechte stukken en de bochten. De looks is persoonlijk... maar ik vind het mooi. Van volledig glans, naar mat. Zijn geld zeker waard!
FALCON DISCFlying!
I'm really happy with the wheel. Looks good and feels fast!
FALCON DISCRocket material!
I got the Falcon and a pair of Ryot 77s for my new Shiv TT and it races and looks perfect! Super happy with it!
