Time Trial Rules.

See below from CCA.

April 1st 2010

Clarification of UCI time trial bicycle frame regulation

After receiving updates from the UCI regarding the compliance of time trial
bicycle frames and questions from our members, the Canadian Cycling
Association wishes to clarify the bicycle rules that will be enforced for the 2010
season.

All technical regulations must be strictly observed in World Calendar events and
in class HC and class 1 events on the Continental Circuits.

In Canada this applies to:


U23 Coupe des Nations Ville de Saguenay

Men’s 1.1 or 2.1 events
• ProTour
However, to avoid penalizing riders participating in lower category events, a
tolerant attitude can be applied to time trial frames, as an exception until 31st
December 2010, solely for the following events:


Class 2 events

Women’s Calendar events

Junior Calendar events

Masters categories (men and women)
• National Championships
The application of UCI rule 1.3.024 (3/1 aspect ratio) to handle bars will be
applied at UCI races, Nationals Championships and National Racing calendar
events as well as other UCI bicycle rules (weight, wheel type, rider position).
