Zipp 303 Road Disc Brake Wheelset

Description

For the 303 Firecrest® Carbon Tubeless Disc Centre Lock wheelset, Zipp has optimized the 25 mm wide and 40 mm deep rim profile to reduce wind and rolling resistance for more speed on all surfaces.

Features

• new Zipp graphics for a speedy look
• versatile long-distance wheelset for modern road bikes with the tubeless and hookless rim profile
• lighter weight, 290 grams less than its predecessor, for agility and speed
• tubeless made easy: the optimized shape of the rim bed allows easy installation and removal without tools and without the need for a compressor to bead the tire
• ultra-wide 25 mm rim profile creates a better transition to the tire for fast on and off-road performance
• 40 mm depth makes the wheel light and aerodynamic in every situation
• ZR1 DB hub (manufactured in Germany) with revised seal design for improved durability and faster response
• aluminum axles
• the front can be converted to 9 x 100 mm quick release or 15 x 100 mm thru-axle (end caps sold separately)
• the rear can be converted to 10 x 135 mm quick release (end caps sold separately)
• TyreWiz tire pressure sensors are sold separately

Technology:

Firecrest®

Through the pioneering use of software to analyze numerical fluid mechanics and the power of a supercomputer, Zipp is able to understand exactly what makes wheels go fast. Zipp then tests the most promising rim shapes in the wind tunnel and on the road. This process led to the creation of Firecrest rim technology, which allows the wheel's airflow and center of gravity to be controlled more effectively, resulting in better aerodynamics, better handling in crosswinds, and an overall better cycling experience.

ABLC SawTooth™

This patented rim shape achieves what conventional aero wheels cannot: it simultaneously reduces aerodynamic drag and lateral wind forces, providing the ultimate AeroBalance™. In addition, the ABLC recesses ensure improved airflow. The result is lower aerodynamic drag and reduced lateral wind forces at any angle of attack. This is important because the steeper the wind angle, the larger the influence on the handling of the bike.
