Yes they are legal. I use a pair.

PoC....do you race track? I want to, but the velodromes are either 5 hours north or 5 hours south from me. :(

How can you make sure that these covers fit your current wheel?

Rich (wheelbuilder.com) asks what wheel you have and will cut it to fit.

:o That bike with the fixed wheel is BBBs
I did ride on an indoor wooden track years ago in England. It was at Calsjot - a former six-day event track with 54 degree banking (I'm not sure about that number) it was steep anyway. Bernard Hinault held the record on that track for the fastest 200m - untouchable!
I remember the burn in my thighs I got from riding it trying for my best 200m time. Wow, intense. I know why track sprinters have huge quads.

That is the most ridiculous bike I have ever seen in my life, and yet... so awesome!
Hi,
Has anyone used wheel covers such as these in place of a disk wheel?

Seems like you get the same result for a lot less money. Are these legal in all Ironman/70.3 series triathlons?
Thanks!
EDIT: I found this thread: http://www.trifuel.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4459
Also, per http://www.usatriathlon.org/upload/pdfs/usat_rules_download.pdf it appears wheel covers are allowed on the back wheel (USAT rule).
