Zipp 101 Wheels -- RepartoCorse.com Shopping Cart
The 30mm-deep 101 exceeds the aerodynamic performance of V-shaped rims with much deeper aero profiles.
The 101’s centerpiece is the first fully toroidal aluminum 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 aluminum wheelset.
With a maximum width of 23.75mm to complement most common tire 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 tire “squirm” on rough surfaces.
Because the rim is narrower at the hook bead than in the middle, the 101 can be used safely with tires as narrow as 21mm, unlike other wide-profile clincher rims. The maximum recommended tire width for the 101 is 35mm.
The 101’s rims are precision machined in Indianapolis, Indiana. 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 202 Tubular Wheelset -- Despite weighing only 1095 grams, the 202 is a versatile racing wheelset that just happens to climb like a mountain goat. Look back through the crucial stages of the recent Grand Tours, and you'll find the 202 winning stages, capturing leader's jerseys, and practically floating up the world's toughest climbs.
Away from the high mountains, Zipp triathlete Jan Frodeno won an Olympic gold medal on the 202. Proving its durability, the 202 was even ridden to a fourth place finish at Paris-Roubaix back in 2008.
To get to the base of the climb, the 202’s 32mm toroidal profile was developed in the wind tunnel to roll on the flats as efficiently as many 45-50mm rims. After the summit, the 202’s high lateral stiffness delivers precise handling on tricky descents and crisp accelerations to finish off the competition.
The 202 is spec'd with the 88/188 hubset and external spoke nipples for easier service with no aero penalty. Zipp's VCLC and Carbon Bridge technologies ensure that the 202's ride is comfortable, smooth, and rock-solid.

Zipp 303 Firecrest Wheels -- In 2010 the 303 became not only the first carbon wheel to win a major cobbled classic, but it won the two biggest classics of them all: Paris-Roubaix and the Tour of Flanders. The wheel is light, utterly dependable, and aerodynamic.
The 303 Firecrest signature shaping is designed to optimize both halves of the wheel, which creates a rim that is significantly faster and also much easier to handle in crosswinds.
At just 1198 grams, the weight of the new 303 is virtually unchanged from its predecessor, and it remains one of the lightest carbon wheelsets anywhere. Its 45mm-deep rim outperforms much deeper rims with a traditional v-shaped cross-section, but the 303 handles like a box-section rim. It's ultra-stable, and suitable for even the windiest days.
Spokes: 18 front/24 rear
Weight: Front - 519 grams/Rear - 652 grams
Rider weight limit: 225 lbs
Includes brake pads, valve extenders and rim tape for clincher model.

Zipp 404 Clincher Wheels -- The clincher version of the 404 utilizes the same go-anywhere, win-anything 58mm rim depth of the tubular model but offers the everyday convenience of clincher tires and the reliability of an aluminum brake track.
For greater strength and reliability, Zipp's M2CM technology fuses the aluminum hoop to the inner carbon section during the molding process. Still, the 404 clincher’s 1658g total weight is less than many full-carbon clinchers. Of course, none of those other wheels offer Zipp’s exclusive features like ABLC dimples, VCLC vibration-reduction technologies, and the smooth, stiff, durable 88/188 hubset.

Zipp 404 Firecrest Wheels -- With the advanced Firecrest aero rim shape, Zipp's 404 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 center 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.
Specifications:
Spokes: 18 front/24 rear
Weight: Front - 582 grams/Rear - 696 grams
Rider weight limit: 225 lbs

Zipp 808 Firecrest Wheels -- Optimizing the revolutionary Firecrest aero rim concept for a 81mm depth by 27mm wide, the 808 is the fastest deep-section carbon wheel in the world and with a weight of only 1759 grams, it more than holds its own on the climbs.
The 808 also handles crosswinds with the stability you’d normally associate with a much shallower rim – making the 808 for non-disc-legal courses like Kona and the wide rim shape provides efficient power transfer along with comfort and durability – making it an excellent choice for just about any terrain and riding style.
For triathletes and road racers seeking superior aero performance, stable handling, and the convenience of clinchers, there’s no faster all-around wheelset than the 808.
Specifications:
Spokes: 16 front/20 rear
Weight: Front - 821 grams/Rear - 938 grams
Rider weight limit: 225 lbs
Includes brake pads, valve extenders and rim tape for clincher model.

Zipp Carbon Brake Pads -- Working with Kool Stop, BP-Amaco and SGL-Hitco (the number 1 manufacturer of brakes for formula 1 racing) Zipp engineered the first thermally conductive, low temperature brake pad for the bike market.
You can stop faster and with less wear and tear to your aluminum or Silca-ceramic braking surfaces. And, because Zipp pads are one of the few pads that don’t contain abrasives, the possibility for heat-flatting under extreme conditions with aluminum rims is minimized – you get a further dimension of safety to your riding.

Zipp Tangente Carbon Brake Pads -- In response to the intense heat caused by braking on carbon, Zipp developed the Tangente High Performance Cork Brake Pad. CNC machined from a unique composite material, the Tangente pad combines the stopping performance and durability of a synthetic polymer with the heat resistance and smooth feel of cork. As a result, the Tangente pad avoids the brake pulsation produced by residue buildup from rubber pads and can even eliminate pulsation from rims with previous buildup.
To outperform all other carbon-specific pads in all conditions, the Tangente pad’s unique shape places more material in the front of the pad to improve durability and shed water. Although the composite material wears similarly to low-temperature rubber compounds, the Tangente pad lasts longer than most rubber carbon-specific pads because of its shape and 0.5mm greater overall thickness.
Available in packs of 4 (14g)
The Tangente pad may be used on any tubular or clincher rim with a carbon braking surface, but it should never be used on aluminum braking surfaces.

Zipp Tangente Platinum Pro Brake Pads -- The Zipp Tangente Platinum Pro Brake Pad delivers smooth speed control, longer wear life and reliable stopping power for use on carbon braking surfaces in all conditions.
Tour de France proven, the pad retains its stopping power in wet weather and provides a smooth ride during the many lighter brake touches required to navigate turns or group rides. The durable pad, developed by Zipp and SwissStop, has no abrasives that damage the rim. It also does not discolor rims.
The Tangente Platinum Pad is designed for use on carbon rims and has not been approved for use on aluminum braking surfaces. It is available for SRAM, Shimano or Campagnolo.
