45mm Deep The 45mm deep 303 Firecrest delivers unmatched aero performance when used with the wide tires that today’s riding demands. Zipp has achieved this with a wide disc-specific rim design featuring ABLC dimples extending all the way to the outer edge of the rim. In addition to achieving AeroBalance™, the industry-leading crosswind stability and low aerodynamic drag that defines all Firecrest wheels, the new 303 Firecrest delivers lower drag than the outgoing version when used with 25c or wider tyres. The aerodynamic performance gap between a narrower rim and the new 303 grows even larger with 28c and wider tyres thanks to a smoother transition between the tyre’s profile and Zipp's new rim shape. Tubeless Rim Designed from the start as a tubeless rim, the 303 Firecrest features a rim bed made with internal ridges to lock the tyre’s bead in place, ensuring secure performance, even when ridden at lower tyre pressures. Setup tubeless and emblazoned with your choice of three colour decal options (optional extra), 303 Firecrest wheels are as alluring as they are easy to use. And should you choose to run tubed tyres, the new 303 is fully compatible. Durable Carbon Layup A new carbon fibre layup keeps weight low while maintaining the 303’s legendary durability. The rim’s lightweight design allows the 303 to glide up the steepest climbs while their robust 77D front hub, paired with 24 Sapim® CX-Ray spokes, keep the wheel stiff and responsive. To ensure compatibility with any bike, Zipp's versatile 77D hub comes with swappable end caps to work with QR’s and thru-axles, including 12x100mm and 15x100mm front thru-axles. And like all Zipp carbon wheels, the new 303 Firecrest is laid up, moulded, drilled and assembled in Indianapolis, USA. Built to take you to places you’ve never been, the 303 Firecrest® Tubeless Carbon Cincher will go the distance. It’ll just take less time. Each Wheel Includes: Zipp Tubeless valve extender and valve-core wrench Zipp rim tape (factory taped) Zipp Tangente quick-release skewer Zipp thru-axle end caps

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. With hookless, the transition between the tyre and the rim is more seamless and aero. Zipp s hookless rims have more efficient resin distribution, which means lighter, stronger wheels. 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.

Tame Wind, Scale MountainsZipp’s 202 Tubular is a versatile wheelset that climbs like a mountain goat and descends like an eagle. Its confirmation comes in the form of numerous Grand Tour stage wins, including AG2R LA MONDIALE’s Alexis Vuillermoz and Romain Bardet in the 2015 Tour de France. Now, with the 77/177 hubset, this climber’s wheelset is even better.To get to the base of the climb, the 202’s 32 mm toroidal profile was developed in the wind tunnel to roll on the flats as efficiently as many 45- to 50mm-deep rims. When the tarmac tilts upward, with superior stiffness and weight of only 1,180 grams, the 202 flies. Beyond the summit, the 202’s high lateral stiffness delivers precise handling on tricky descents and crisp accelerations to finish off the competition.While the 202 Tubular is renowned for its prowess on steep terrain, it’s pro proven for all kinds of speed needs and deeds. Zipp pro triathlete Jan Frodeno won gold in Beijing riding the 202. This wheelset even was ridden to fourth place at Paris-Roubaix. Now the inclusion of the 77/177 hubset gives best-in-class durability and improved bearing protection with no pre-load adjustment needed to raise the 202 to an even higher level: Optimized flange geometry and spoke hole attachment pattern with Sapim® CX-Ray spokes to optimize torsional and lateral stiffness without sacrificing weight or robustness., Includes newly designed quick-release skewers with a wider more ergonomic handle to give more leverage for opening and closing. When closed, lever contours neatly with the frame., New robust hub platform with distinctive graphics., For those looking for a wider gear range, or tackling especially extreme terrain, a XD driver body for 177 is sold separately and easily installed to allow for more cassette options including a 10-42. â�¨The hubset is designed to swap driver bodies without re-dishing wheel.,Max recommended rider weight 225lbs.Available in two decal options, the stealthy Matte Black or the distinctive Matte White decals.

Zipp 808 Firecrest Carbon Tubeless Rear WheelZipp's 808 Firecrest Tubeless rim-brake rear wheel makes you faster with an 82mm rim depth that's fast, stable in crosswinds, and now tubeless-ready. That means you get all the aero benefits with having the ability to run lower tyre pressure for increased cornering grip and compliance and reduced rolling resistance, without the risk of pinch flats. This rear wheel is infused with technologies developed in Zipp's Indianapolis advanced development lab. Zipp's ABLC Sawtooth Technology uses a complex dimpling pattern to improve aero efficiency. Zipp's ShowStopper textured braking surface delivers unrivalled rim braking performance in wet or dry conditions. At the centre of the 808 Firecrest Tubeless rim-brake is a versatile and durable hub, the German-engineered ZR1. Zipp's wheel cosmetics make this rear wheel a perfect pairing of speed and style.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.ABLC SawtoothThe 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.AerobalanceZipp's sole mission is to help you go faster. That's why the brand's wheels are race-ready before they're camera-ready. For years, Zipp has used a combination of testing methods - wind tunnel, CFD computer simulations, pro athlete evaluations, on-road testing, and the RollingRoad ride simulator - to refine aero performance to new levels of excellence. Over the decades of innovation, its engineers have learned to look beyond just focusing on simply reducing aero drag. Instead, the goal now is to reduce aero drag while also minimising the effects of crosswinds on handling. This optimising of aero efficiency and crosswind stability became known internally at Zipp as AeroBalance. The approach began with Firecrest technology and has been advanced with the introduction of the NSW lineup, especially with the Sawtooth technology found in the 454 and 858 NSW. Sawtooth accomplishes this with a series of patented fin-shaped Hyperfoil nodes along the inner diameter of the rim that works together with Zipp's new HexFin ABLC dimples for improved airflow.Features: Rim Material: Carbon with UD Fibre finish and adhesive decals Use: Road Axle Type: QR 130mm (quick release) Internal Rim Width: 18mm 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: ZR1 Rim Brake Axle Material: Aluminium Bearings: Cartridge - Stainless Steel Driver Mechanism: 6 Pawls Leaf Spring Driver Body Material: Aluminium Max Tyre Pressure: 125psi Max Recommended Rider Weight: 250lbs Single or Pair: Single rear wheel Weight: 1003g (approx)Technologies: New Zipp graphics and cosmetic identity that scream speed.
