According to the product specialist
Pros
Aerodynamic and not sensitive to crosswinds. |
Direct, rigid and reliable carbon wheels. |
Showstopper braking surface for better control and maximum braking power. |
The Zipp 302 Tubeless Rim Brake wheels have an excellent price/quality ratio; they offer 45 mm deep rims, low weight and aerodynamic Sapim spokes at a very competitive price. |
The rims are compatible both with tubeless and folding tyres. Thus, you can ride tubeless and benefit from low rolling resistance, better grip and more comfort. |
The Zipp 76/176 hubs are reliable and easy to maintain. |
Lifetime warranty for manufacturing defects, except for wear and tear. |
Thanks to a combination of low weight and a 45 mm half-high rim, the Zipp 303 Firecrest Tubeless Rim Brake wheels are all-rounders. |
Tubeless tyres can be fitted to the rims with or without inner tubes. This makes it possible to ride tubeless, with advantages such as lower rolling resistance, better grip and more comfort. |
The Zipp ZR1 hubs, developed in Germany, have bearings with a good seal and improved durability. The 6 pawl body engages super quick, resulting in minimal energy loss when the rider starts pedaling. |
The Zipp ShowStopper brake surface ensures smooth braking in both wet and dry weather. |
Lifelong guarantee covering all manufacturing errors, excepting wear and tear. Ultimate certainty! |
Cons
The carbon braking surface makes this wheel less suitable for long mountain descents with the risk of a blowout or rim deformation. |
While the Sapim CX Sprint J-bend spokes provide more comfort compared to straight-pull spokes, they slightly reduce the wheel's stiffness. |
While 1600 grams is quite light, there are lighter wheelsets in this price range. |
Due to the carbon rim brake structure, these wheels are less suitable for long descents in the mountains, as they may blow or develop rim deformation. |
