The Zipp 303 Firecrest Tubeless Disc is one of the most versatile and high-performance rear wheels on the road/gravel market. With its optimised 40 mm profile and wide rim, it combines aerodynamics, comfort and durability to meet the expectations of demanding cyclists who want a wheel that excels at everything.
This Zipp 303 Firecrest rear wheel is designed for all-round bikes. Its hookless tubeless carbon rim offers an internal width of 25 mm and an external width of 30 mm, ideal for 28 mm tyres (or even wider ones up to 50 mm for gravel riding). The 40 mm profile provides an excellent aerodynamic compromise whilst maintaining great stability. Fitted with a high-performance ZR1 hub, Sapim CX-Ray spokes and a Centrelock disc brake, it guarantees exceptional stiffness, powerful braking and great durability.
Thanks to its ‘ Tubeless ’ design, this wheel allows for lower tyre pressures, reducing vibrations and significantly improving comfort and energy efficiency on rough roads or over long distances. The optimised rim-to-tyre transition reduces aerodynamic drag whilst offering better handling. Supplied with a rim strip and tubeless valve, it is ready to use and compatible with 12x142 mm axles. It is perfect for cyclists seeking performance, versatility and a premium riding experience on all terrains, whether in the mountains or on the flat.
