How can I use a ngModel on an ion-radio element?

Question

I'm trying to implement a ngModel on a ion-radio element but somehow it doesn't work. This is my code:

import {
  Page
} from 'ionic-angular';

@Page({
  templateUrl: 'build/pages/settings/settings.html'
})

export class Settings {
  constructor() {
    this.unit = 2;
  }
}

<ion-list radio-group>
  <ion-list-header>
    Unit
  </ion-list-header>

  <ion-item>
    <ion-label>Metric (kg)</ion-label>
    <ion-radio value="1" [(ngModel)]="unit"></ion-radio>
  </ion-item>

  <ion-item>
    <ion-label>Imperial (lbs)</ion-label>
    <ion-radio value="2" [(ngModel)]="unit"></ion-radio>
  </ion-item>
</ion-list>

I've tried implementing it on a ion-input and ion-select and that just works fine. I also tried adding directives: [FORM_DIRECTIVES] to my @Page and added the corresponding import but that doesn't fix the problem.

Any ideas?

Syntax has been changed rewritten now, ngModel should be place with ion-list & radio-group only once. No need to have them there on each ion-radio element.

<ion-list radio-group [(ngModel)]="unit">
    <ion-list-header>
        Unit
    </ion-list-header>

    <ion-item>
        <ion-label>Metric (kg)</ion-label>
        <ion-radio value="1"></ion-radio>
    </ion-item>

    <ion-item>
        <ion-label>Imperial (lbs)</ion-label>
        <ion-radio value="2" ></ion-radio>
    </ion-item>
</ion-list>
