Pros & Cons
Pros & Cons
- These Zipp 101 XPLR gravel wheels give you a very comfortable ride and are suitable for rougher terrain.
- Thanks to the quality ZR1 hubset, the bearings are well sealed and the wheels last long.
- Despite being very stiff, the carbon rims provide lateral flexibility towards the ground, which is partially due due to the MOTO technology.
- The Zipp 101 XPLR wheels have more traction in corners and over hills thanks to the MOTO technology.
- Tubeless-only means you can ride with lower tyre pressure.
- Attention: only suitable TLR tyres.

Description
Description
MOTO
The Zipp MOTO technology is, in a way, similar to the flexibility of a human ankle. When the wheel rides over a stone or tree root in a corner, the rim can bend locally to stay parallel to the ground. This flexibility allows you to hold your line and not bounce off. This not only increases traction, but also riding comfort!
Technology
ZR1 hubsetZipp's ZR1 hubset allows you to perform to the best of your ability in all weathers. The freehub is well sealed, preventing water and dirt from getting in. The hubset has 66 points of engagement, so you'll be able to power through the hills quickly!
MOTO technology
Zipp MOTO technology is a bit like the flexibility of a human ankle. If the wheel goes over a stone or tree root in a bend, the rim can bend locally to remain parallel to the ground. This flexibility allows you to hold your line and not bounce off. This not only increases traction, but also riding comfort!

Reviews
5 / 5
The Zipp 101 XPLR wheels are highly recommended.
These gravel wheels leave a thoroughly positive impression, especially when it comes to outstanding comfort and impressive grip off-road. The wheels' pleasant flex helps them to excel on rough terrain and the hub's 66 engagement points ensure fast response behaviour.
5 / 5
Perfect wheels for gravel
The fact that the inside width is 27mm makes the Pathfinder 47mm tyres 49mm. This improves rolling resistance, traction, and comfort. They are not aero nor are they the lightest but with large volume knobby tyres the aerodynamics are almost non-existent. To notice the bike's functions I think you have to go very fast. The price is high but Mantel has the most competitive and the quality is also high.
