Hey All,
Is there a maximum legal rim section depth for USCF criterium and road racing? I couldn't find any rules or regs that give a clear answer. I looked in the UCI infor and couldn't find it there either. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

I've seen guys racing RRs and crits on disc wheels so as far as I know there is not one.

No, there isn't one, but usually the handling/weight/cost benifits start to overcome the aero benifits before you get to 100mm+ sections.

The UCI rules are pretty clear: it's a standard wheel or on the following list.

That is, however, irrelevant at USCF races where probably your best bet if you would run a very deep rim is probably to contact the race organiser.
