Specifically, TSE focuses on overcoming specific barriers to speed: wind resistance, gravity, rolling resistance, and vibration losses. Zipp s ABLC Sawtooth Technology uses an intricate dimpling pattern to improve aero efficiency. Zipp s use of hookless (straight side) rims in the 404 Firecrest is integral to making you faster.

Outdoor testing commissioned by Zipp revealed the real-world gains of Zipp TSE. A bike and rider system weighing 85kg (187lbs) on the new 404 Firecrest with 25mm tyres required 286 watts to maintain a speed of 40kph. That s a 4-watt savings compared with the previous model 404 Firecrest. At the centre of the 404 Firecrest Tubeless Disc-brake is a versatile and durable hub set, the German engineered ZR1 DB. If you had to choose just one wheel for road riding and racing, the 404 Firecrest Tubeless Disc brake is a savvy and speedy choice.
