Zipp 404 Firecrest Tubular Rear Wheel

These days, the 404 Tubular still winning races from the Queen K to L'Alpe d'Huez. Now, with the advanced Firecrest aero rim shape, Zipp's leading all-around performer is an even greater threat to win any race on any terrain. By controlling airflow around the back half of the wheel, Firecrest makes the latest version of the 404 9 seconds faster than its predecessor over 40km at a moderate 10-degree wind angle. At higher wind angles, the improvements are even more dramatic in terms of both speed and stability. That's because Firecrest moves the centre of pressure closer to the steering axis, so crosswinds exert lower side force on the wheel. Aerodynamics aside, the 404's new 27mm-wide profile offers a slew of other benefits on the road. The upgraded lateral stiffness makes the 404 even more responsive to accelerations and more precise when cornering. And its composite structure is designed to absorb impacts by flexing slightly outward – which gives you a comfortable ride and long-term durability. Even with all these improvements, Firecrest technology hasn't added a gram to the 404 Tubular's weight of just 1278g. On the climbs, it goes toe-to-toe with shallower, less aero rivals. On the flats, it hangs with deeper, less nimble competitors. If any one wheelset can do it all, it's the 404.

Zipp 808 Firecrest Tubular Front Wheel

Buy now. Pay later on Zipp 808 Firecrest Tubular Front Wheel. Zipp 808 Firecrest Tubular Front Wheel: The 808 changed perceptions about deep-section wheels. At first, its 81mm-deep profile appeared only in time trials and triathlons. Sure enough, it netted numerous Grand Tour stage wins and Kona IM world championships. Still, it didn't take long before Zipp riders discovered that the 808's light weight, responsiveness, and solid handing are ideally suited to hilly bike legs, criteriums, field sprints, and long days off the front of the peloton. Now, with the new Firecrest rim shape, the 808 has improved in almost every metric. Its 27mm-wide profile is 15 seconds faster than before over 40km, and now equals or exceeds the performance of any 90mm-deep rim on the market as well as many discs. At high wind angles, the 808's aero advantage is even greater, yet Firecrest also makes the 808 remarkably stable. Essentially, it provides the speed of a much deeper rim with the handling of a much shallower one. On windy, non-disc-legal course like Kona, that counts for a lot. And with its wider profile, the latest 808 Tubular shows improved lateral stiffness for efficient power transfer and crisp acceleration, yet offers greater comfort and impact resistance than its predecessor. Pro triathletes like Virginia Berasategui and Chris McCormack build their seasons around a few crucial events where aerodynamics are everything. Pro cyclists like Fabian Cancellara and Thor Hushovd log scores of race days every year with huge variations in weather, terrain, and tactics. No matter what approach you take, the 808 Tubular provides top-shelf aerodynamics with a remarkable versatility to take on whatever challenge you're facing.

Zipp 101 Clincher Front Wheel

Zipp 101 Clincher Front Wheel: The world's most aerodynamically advanced aluminium wheelset (front wheel), the all-new Zipp 101. The 101's centrepiece is the first fully toroidal aluminium rim, developed in the wind tunnel with a proprietary profile curve extending across the braking surfaces. With this patented design, the 30mm-deep 101 can exceed the aerodynamic performance of V-shaped rims with much deeper aero profiles. And no shallow-profile design comes close to the 101 in the wind tunnel or on the road, where the 101 can save up to 42 seconds over 40km compared to the industry's benchmark aluminium wheelset. Creating the 101 required developing new technologies to conduct wind tunnel testing using structural prototypes with fully inflated clincher tyres. This makes the resulting test data more accurate and realistic than ever before. After Zipp's engineers honed in on the fastest shape, the manufacturing process required its own set of innovations for rolling, welding, and machining the 101's precisely curved toroidal profile. With a maximum width of 23.75mm to complement most common tyre sizes, the bulged profile of the 101 smoothes airflow around the wheel more effectively than typical, narrow rim designs. The 101's wide platform also resists pinch flatting, improves lateral stiffness, and provides stable handling without tyre "squirm" on rough surfaces. Because the rim is narrower at the hook bead than in the middle, the 101 can be used safely with tyres as narrow as 21mm, unlike other wide-profile clincher rims. The maximum recommended tyre width for the 101 is 35mm. The 101 is built by hand in Speedway, Indiana, with the same components as Zipps top-of-the-line carbon wheelsets and by the same individually trained builders. The 101 is laced with 18 front and 20 rear Sapim CX-Ray spokes and Zipp's 88 and 188 hubs with Swiss steel bearings. The hubs are manufactured in Indiana using the proprietary Z310.9 alloy, and feature oversize 17mm axles and adjustable bearing preload.

Zipp 404 Firecrest Carbon Clincher Rear Wheel: Our first full-carbon clincher wheelset, the 404 Carbon Clincher has been described as the most heavily anticipated wheelset of all time. NEW::::::::And following two years of development for its revolutionary rim shape and carbon technology, we're confident that the 404 Carbon Clincher lives up to the hype. Its Firecrest aero profile is the first deep-profile carbon clincher design to offer the superior aerodynamics, ride quality, strength, and handling of a wider rim body. Yet the 404 Carbon Clincher weighs just 1557 grams per set, putting it among the lightest deep-profile carbon clinchers available. Designed specifically to account for the differences in airflow patterns between clincher tyres and tubulars, 404 Carbon Clincher far exceeds the aero performance of any other clincher wheelset in its class. As Zipp proved with the Paris-Roubaix-winning 303 Tubular, a wider rim offers greater vertical compliance for control and comfort on rough surfaces while increasing lateral stiffness for sprinting and cornering. The same holds true for Firecrest rims with clincher tyres. And because the hook beads are farther apart, the tire itself takes on a more stable shape without adding rolling resistance. Heavy, continuous braking on carbon surfaces can cause spikes in rim temperature and tire pressure that impact performance and handling – especially with clincher tyres. To solve this challenge, our US-based composites supplier created a new heat-resistant resin exclusively for Zipp. This technology improves heat dissipation so substantially that ours are the only carbon clinchers to pass stringent European safety testing without limitations on rider weight or brake pad options. Naturally, we chose to launch our groundbreaking carbon clincher designs with our most versatile wheelset, the 404. Its 58mm rim depth is a classic all-around performer that has carried athletes to victory in every kind of event – triathlons, criteriums, breakaways, field sprints, even Grand Tour mountain stages. Now, the 404 is available with the convenience of clinchers, the light weight of an all-carbon rim, and the unrivaled performance of Zipp technology.
