Wider Carbon Fibre Rim for Better Aerodynamics The 303 Firecrest Tubeless Disc brake wheels were designed using real-world direct measurements (vs. primarily wind tunnel or computer simulation). This included Zipp’s RollingRoad™ Testing Protocol. The results were huge. Its rim is slightly more bulbous in design than its predecessor, with a 30mm outside width, a 25mm internal width and a 40mm rim depth. The profile provides low drag and an improved transition between rim and tyre, boosting aero efficiency on the road. Faster Performance These wheels are faster, lighter and more capable over varied terrain, whether the surface is tarmac in all its conditions or no tarmac at all. Deeply rooted in Zipp’s drive to conquer the Spring Classics, the revised 303 Firecrest is redesigned with a purpose-made approach for the demands of modern road bikes. This is the first Zipp wheelset to feature TSE™ Technology (Total System Efficiency). The 303 Firecrest’s precise rim layup results in greater all-around efficiency for greater speed through reduced wind resistance, rolling resistance, a lower weight, increased durability and vibration losses. More Comfortable Ride on Mixed Terrain The wide rim stance also features less tyre deflection for reduced rolling resistance. The combination of the wider tyre, increased tyre volume and lower tyre pressure reduces rider fatigue. This is because the ride is smoother over imperfect surface conditions as the tyre and wheel system absorbs the shaking, not the rider. At the centre of the 303 Firecrest Tubeless Disc brake is a versatile and durable hubset, the German-engineered ZR1 DB. This hubset features 66 points of engagement for quicker pedalling response. The 303 Firecrest Tubeless Disc-brake wheelset is for those after greater efficiency for greater speed. The payoff is a smoother, faster ride.

Zipp 303 S Carbon Disc Rear Road WheelTaking its design from the higher-spec Firecrest 303 model, this rear wheel is ideal for modern "go anywhere" road bikes. Zipp has also updated this model with a wider rim to improve rider comfort, handling and aerodynamics. Expanding greatly on its heritage of conquering the Spring Classics, this 303 wheel maintains its ideal-for-every-terrain 45mm rim depth. However, this model adds a significantly wider internal width to provide greater performance and ride quality in almost every measurable way. Road bikes are more versatile than ever no matter the road surface, but just as fast as before. The 303 S offers an entirely new rim profile and design to optimise rider performance on this new breed of bike. This wheelset is tubeless compatible and designed for disc-brake bikes, allowing the ability to run wide tires at lower pressures for race-ready speed on or off the tarmac.45mm Deep Rear WheelThe 303 S is among Zipp's lightest wheels, optimised for top aero performance with a 28mm tyre but capable of handling gravel tyres up to 50mm wide. The key innovation is in the 303 S's rim design. Its 45mm rim depth is the same as its predecessor, the 302 Disc brake. But its external rim width is 2mm wider, at 27mm, and its tyre bed is a full 7mm wider, at 23mm internal width. That rim platform is designed to be the fastest with a 28mm tyre. The wide rim optimises tyre profile to allow lower tyre pressure. That helps to reduce rolling resistance and provides a more compliant ride. The result of all this is a 10 watt savings vs. a top peer wheel in total power required to ride 40kph on a flat road with a 28mm tyre, according to internal Zipp testing.This ground-breaking wheel also features all-new cosmetics, setting the rider apart from the pack, and comes at a very attractive price.Please Note: Shimano/SRAM freehub option is for 11 speed Shimano/SRAM XD cassettes.

Zipp 353 NSW Carbon TL Rear Road Disc Wheel Offering increased stiffness, strength and an overall lower weight, this road bike rear wheel features a high-quality carbon hookless rim construction for conquering the demands of modern road cycling. Developed for greater versatility and speed, it's equipped with many of Zipp's finest performance-enhancing technologies including a Sawtooth rim shape and Total System Efficiency (TSE) that offer reduced wind resistance, rolling resistance and gravity vibration losses. Coming kitted out with 45mm deep rim shape, this model delivers fantastic speed on every terrain with best-in-class aerodynamic efficiency and crosswind stability. Tubeless, Hookless Road Bike Rear WheelThe 353 NSW is Zipp's lightest tubeless wheel yet, making it a fast-puncher ready to fight its way into the breakaway. Zipp's use of a hookless (straight side) rim in the 353 NSW is integral to achieving the brand's mission of Making You Faster. With hookless, the transition between the tyre and the rim is more seamless and aerodynamic. Zipp's hookless rims have more efficient resin distribution, which results in a lighter and highly durable rear wheel. Thanks to its 25mm internal rim width, its ideal for running wider tubeless tyres at reduced air pressure for improved stability, greater comfort and fewer chances of flats or punctures.Sawtooth Rim Shape with HyperFoilsZipp's 353 NSW's Sawtooth rim shape with Hyperfoils optimises aerodynamic efficiency and crosswind stability. The Sawtooth design also allows the rim to be structurally strong but remain lightweight, which will help you snap out of corners and maintain your speed no matter the terrain. Centre Lock Disc Brake CompatibilityReady for clocking up the miles, this rear wheel is equipped with Centre Lock disc brake compatibility, so riders can enjoy powerful and consistent braking operation wherever their ride takes them. This makes the Zipp 353 NSW Carbon TL Disc Center Lock Rear 2021 a great choice of upgrade for faster, smoother and more dependable performance on your road bike.Features: Rim Material: Carbon Rim Finish: Unidirectional (UD) Fibre Rim Graphics: Impress technology Axle Size: 12x142mm Use: Road Inner Rim Width: 25mm Rim Depth: 45mm Rim Shape: Symmetrical, Sawtooth Rim Profile: Hookless, Tubeless Clincher Hub: Cognition V2Freehub Compatibility: Multiple options available to select Drive Side Spoke Length: 258mm, 266mm Non Drive Side Spoke Length: 264mm, 266mm Size: 700c Tyre Compatibility: Tubeless tyres only Brake Compatibility: Centre Lock disc brake Single or Pair: Single Lifetime warranty Weight: 675gTechnologies: Impress: Zipp has employed ImPress graphics technology on this model, which prints graphics directly on the wheel, to help allow the dimples to do what they were design to do - help control vortex shedding, the rate at which air sheds off the wheel. Managing this is crucial to stability. Sawtooth: SawTooth is the name given to Zipp NSW's patented variable depth 53/58mm rims. Developed utilising the principles of the emerging science of biomimicry, Zipp engineers began the rigorous aero development process of SawTooth utilising the wind tunnel, CFD, and real-world testing. The result is a rim shape that takes nature's most elegant design solutions and combines engineering precision to deliver a wheel that performs unlike any made before. This patented rim shape achieves something conventional aero wheels cannot; it simultaneously reduces both aerodynamic drag and side force for the ultimate in AeroBalance. Sawtooth accomplishes this with a series of patented fin-shaped Hyperfoil nodes along the inner diameter of the rim that work together with HexFin ABLC dimples for improved airflow. The result is Zipp's highest performing wheel ever released with both aero-drag reduction and reduced side force at all wind yaw angles. This is important because higher wind yaw angles are where bike handling is most affected by the wind. Hyperfoil: Hyperfoil is the name given to the individual nodes on Zipp NSW variable depth Sawtooth rims. Each of these patented structures features Zipp's HexFin ABLC dimples that help to stabilize handling in gusting wind by increasing wind vortex shedding frequency. The higher frequency vortex shedding produced by Sawtooth creates a greater number of smaller, less powerful, yet more predictable vortices leading to greater wheel stability. This added stability translates into greater rider control, thereby saving energy that is typically expended trying to hold a line in gusting wind. The result is a faster, more confident riding experience whether you are laying down power or descending sinuous mountain roads.Hexfin ABLC: HexFin ABLC dimples are the hexagonally shaped depressions found at each Hyperfoil of our Sawtooth shaped NSW rims. The angular shape of each dimple increases boundary layer mixing to help keep airflow attached to the rim for reduced aerodynamic drag and improved stability in crosswinds. To further improve the effectiveness of the hexagonal dimples, they are arranged in fin-shaped clusters made up of variable sized dimples that work in concert with each Hyperfoil of a Sawtooth rim.Axial Clutch: With Cognition's Axial Clutch technology, Zipp reduced drag by disengaging the ratchet mechanism when coasting. With less internal hub drag a rider can pedal less when drafting in a headwind, achieve higher speeds when coasting in an aero tuck, or opt to stop pedalling a moment sooner before entering a corner and bank that wattage for use exiting the corner. Axial Clutch technology also allows riders to maintain speed through corners that don't require braking input, thereby increasing corner exit speeds. Inside the Axial Clutch mechanism Zipp use magnets, rather than steel springs, to move and engage the lightweight Metal Injection Molded (MIM) ratchet rings for unmatched reliability and consistent operation. With 36 points of engagement that all interlock simultaneously, there isn't a more secure freehub mechanism on the market. TSE Technology: Zipp's TSE Technology (Total System Efficiency) was developed by its engineers in the Nest Advanced Development Lab in Indy. This approach to carbon-wheel manufacturing means the wheel's precise rim layup results in greater all-around efficiency for greater speed through reduced: Wind resistance, rolling resistance and gravity (weight + durability) vibration losses.Manufacturer's Part Numbers: Shimano HG 10/11 speed: ZPWH8613000 SRAM XD 10/11/12 speed: ZPWH8613001Buy Zipp Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

So you can approach corners at higher speeds, and ultimately, save time. A star-flanged straight-pull hubshell design on the rear hub distributes the load placed on the hub flange away from the bearings. Zipp also developed a unique scalloped edge hubshell design for the front hub (front wheel available separately). This scalloped design maintains the bearing bore diameter when high radial spoke tension is applied. That means you get bearings that quietly stay in place, roll faster, last longer, and provide a laterally stiffer hub. Impress: Zipp has employed ImPress graphics technology on this model, which prints graphics directly on the wheel, to help allow the dimples to do what they were design to do - help control vortex shedding, the rate at which air sheds off the wheel. Managing this is crucial to stability. Sawtooth: SawTooth is the name given to Zipp NSW's patented variable depth 53/58mm rims.

Zipp 858 NSW Carbon Tubeless Rear WheelZipp's ultimate aero weapon is now tubeless ready. That means you get the many aero advantages of the 858 NSW Tubeless rim-brake rear wheel with the added benefit of increased cornering grip and compliance with reduced rolling resistance. The rear wheels' 19mm internal width is optimised for running wider tyres at reduced air pressure. The 858 NSW's undulating 77/82mm-deep rim shape, the brand's proprietary Sawtooth profile, takes design cues from nature for Zipp's highest performing wheel when it comes to aero efficiency and crosswind stability. These structures inspired Zipp advanced development engineers to, for the first time, systematically apply biomimicry to solve the complex challenge of designing a wheel, with the undulating Hyperfoil nodes, that reduce both aerodynamic drag and side force. Simply put, the 858 NSW Tubeless is ideal for those focused on triathlon, time trials, or aggressive road riding.SawtoothSawTooth is the name given to Zipp NSW's patented variable depth 53/58mm rims.

Zipp 808 NSW Carbon Tubeless Rear WheelZipp's 808 NSW Tubeless rim-brake rear wheel features a rim shape that aerodynamically integrates wider tubeless tyres for a new era of high-performance road cycling at the brand's deepest rim depth, 82mm. The 808 NSW Tubeless allows you to run tubeless or traditional clinchers. The benefits of tubeless include superior flat protection, the ability to run lower pressures, and a smoother ride with a high cornering grip and low rolling resistance. The 808 NSW Tubeless' 19mm internal rim width and corresponding outer rim shape are optimised for aerodynamic optimisation with 25mm tyres. Zipp's wheel cosmetics gives this rear wheel a perfect pairing of speed and style.CognitionThe ultimate in Zipp hub technology. Every time a conventional hub set starts to coast, friction within the freehub ratchet mechanism works like a drum brake to slow the rider down. The drag between hub shell and driver body during coasting is considered an efficiency loss, especially for road wheels. High drag also can significantly contribute to chain-dropping issues. The drag torque drives the cassette clockwise so the chain gets loose on the load side. The solution? The rear Cognition hub with AxialClutch technology reduces drag by disengaging the ratchet mechanism when coasting. It then uses magnets to re-engage once the rider starts pedalling.ShowstopperZipp's industry leading Showstopper brake track continues to evolve and improve, providing unmatched stopping power and modulation regardless of weather conditions or the length of the descent. Showstopper is a complimenting pairing of a directional, moulded-in, texture with silicon carbide particles suspended in the surface resin. The current media blast process applied to all Zipp rims increases the surface roughness of the brake track providing the rider with consistent and responsive braking.Hexfin Aerodynamic Boundary Layer Control (ABLC)The Sawtooth dimple design consists of 12 nodes that are specifically clocked to start aerodynamic shearing at a rate of 50hz at a rider speed of 20mph. Sawtooth accomplishes this by inducing small sheet vortices that shed at a low magnitude, but at a higher natural frequency, thus decreasing the laminar bubble effect on the aerodynamically shielded side of the rim's profile to further reduce high yaw drag and improve crosswind stability.ImPressZipp's ImPress graphics technology prints graphics directly on the wheel, which allows the dimples to do what they were designed to achieve, to control vortex shedding and the rate at which air sheds off the wheel. Managing this is crucial to stability. ImPress graphics also give NSW a distinctive stealthy look.Features: Rim Material: Carbon with UD Fibre Finish and Impress Technology Use: Road Axle Type: QR 130mm (quick release) Internal Rim Width: 19mm Rim Depth: 82mm Rim Profile: Symmetrical Brake Compatibility: Rim Brake Size: 700c Tyre Compatibility: Clincher, Tubeless Ready Surface Texture: ABLC SawTooth Nipple Material: Aluminium Nipple Anti-rotation: Sapim Secure-loc Spoke Type: CX-Ray - Black Spoke Count: 24 Spoke Pattern: 2 cross Hub: Cognition Axle Material: Aluminium Bearings: Cartridge, Stainless Steel Driver Mechanism: Axial Clutch Driver Body Material: Aluminium Max Tyre Pressure: 125psi Max Recommended Rider Weight: 250lbs Single or Pair: Single rear wheel Weight: 982g (approx)Technologies: New graphics that scream speed, applied using Zipp's ImPress direct-print technology to help allow the dimples to do what they were designed to do - improve aero performance.
