Zipp unveils its latest tubeless wheels for disc brakes: the 353 NSW, 303 SW, 454 NSW, and 858 NSW, as well as the Goodyear Fitment tire series. These products incorporate advanced technologies, including SRAM AXS connectivity for precise tire pressure control, and are designed to optimize performance on road, gravel, and in triathlon.
Zipp 353 NSW: the speed of light
The Zipp 353 NSW is the brand’s most advanced wheel, combining lightness, aerodynamics, and connectivity. As the first Zipp wheel integrated into SRAM AXS, it allows for onboard tire pressure control thanks to a sensor integrated into the rim, without an external device. This system displays pressure in real-time, with a green indicator light confirming settings before departure.
Weighing 1310 g, the 353 NSW is Zipp’s lightest wheelset, while offering a 16% increase in impact resistance. Its hookless tubeless rim, 35/40 mm deep, featuring Sawtooth technology, ensures stability and aerodynamic efficiency, even in crosswinds.
Optimized for 30 mm tires, it is equipped with the ZR1 hub with ceramic bearings and 66 points of engagement for optimal responsiveness. This wheel is ideal for climbers and road cyclists, but not approved for Gravel.
Main features:
Hookless TSS tubeless rim, 25 mm internal width
Integrated Zipp AXS pressure sensor
TSE technology to reduce rolling resistance
Lifetime warranty
Price: €3900
Zipp 303 SW: the modern classic
The Zipp 303 SW is a versatile wheel designed for varied roads, from asphalt to gravel and cyclocross. Like the 353 NSW, it integrates the SRAM AXS pressure sensor for precise real-time tire pressure monitoring. Weighing 1440 g, it combines robustness (10% increased impact resistance) and lightness.
Its 40 mm deep rim, inspired by the 303 XPLR, offers excellent aerodynamic performance and low rolling resistance, especially with 30 to 35 mm tires. The ZR1 hub with stainless steel bearings guarantees durability and smoothness. The design reduces tire deformation, mitigating vibrations for increased comfort, ideal for long rides.
Main features:
Hookless TSS tubeless rim, 25 mm internal width
Optimized for wide tires and low pressures
ZR1 hub with stainless steel bearings
Lifetime warranty
Price: €1900
Zipp 454 NSW: aerodynamic performance for competition
The Zipp 454 NSW is designed for road competitors seeking a balance between aerodynamics and stability. Weighing 1400 g, it is 30 g lighter than the previous model. Its hookless tubeless rim, 53/58 mm deep, featuring Sawtooth technology with Hyperfoil nodes, offers exceptional stability in crosswinds.
Optimized for 28 mm tires, it reduces rolling resistance and vibrations thanks to Total System Efficiency (TSE) technology. The ZR1 hub with ceramic bearings ensures optimal responsiveness with 66 points of engagement. This wheel is ideal for demanding road races.
Main features:
Sawtooth rim with TSE technology
ZR1 hub with ceramic bearings
Reduced weight and optimized aerodynamics
Lifetime warranty
Price: €3800
Zipp 858 NSW: the ultimate aerodynamic asset
The Zipp 858 NSW is Zipp’s fastest wheel, designed for triathlon, time trials, and speed enthusiasts. Weighing 1500 g, it is 30 g lighter than the previous version. Its hookless tubeless rim, 82/85 mm deep, featuring the Sawtooth profile, offers unparalleled aerodynamics and stability.
Optimized for 30 mm tires, it reduces rolling resistance and vibrations, improving comfort over long distances. The ZR1 hub with ceramic bearings ensures smooth power transmission. This wheel excels in demanding conditions, especially for triathletes.
Main features:
Sawtooth rim for aerodynamics and stability
TSE technology to minimize energy losses
ZR1 hub with ceramic bearings
Lifetime warranty
Price: €3800
ZR1 SL Hub: lightness and performance
The ZR1 SL hub, designed for high-end NSW wheels, is a concentrate of performance. Weighing 304 g with ceramic bearings, it is lighter than its predecessor. With 66 points of engagement, it offers immediate responsiveness. Compatible with electric assist bikes (max torque 60 Nm), it is available in 20, 24, and 28-hole versions, with XDR, HG11, Microspline, or N3W freehub bodies.
Goodyear Fitment Series: high-performance tires
Zipp partners with Goodyear to offer two tires optimized for its wheels:
- Goodyear Vector R XPLR (40 mm, 440 g): designed for the Zipp 303 XPLR, this tubeless tire offers aerodynamics, comfort, and robustness. With a supple 120 TPI casing, R:Shield and M:Wall protection, and the Dynamic:UHP compound, it excels on varied roads and gravel. Price: €90
- Goodyear Eagle F1 R Z29 Aero (29 mm, 270 g): developed for the 23 mm TSS rims of the Zipp 404 and 454, this race tire combines aerodynamics, low rolling resistance, and puncture protection. Its 180 TPI casing and Aero Lip technology optimize speed and robustness. Price: €100
Thanks to SRAM AXS connectivity, advanced aerodynamic designs, and increased robustness, these products are aimed at competitors and demanding cyclists. Available with a lifetime warranty, they embody Zipp’s innovation and precision for riding faster, on all terrains.
