Zipp 404 Firecrest 700c 12x142mm 10/11-sp. TL DB R. Wheel in Black

Brand:Zipp

Code:ZPWH8621000

Zipp’s 404 Firecrest Tubeless Disc brake is a pro-proven wheelset for any situation.

The 404’s heritage as Zipp’s icon of speed extends back decades. At 58mm deep, the 404 Firecrest Tubeless is ideal for road races, time trial and triathlon, gran fondos, and riding over varied terrain. The wheelset’s 23mm internal width is perfect for running wider tubeless tyres at reduced air pressure. That is a vital component of Total System Efficiency (TSE), an approach to speed on ever-changing roads and riding conditions. Specifically, TSE focuses on overcoming specific barriers to speed: wind resistance, gravity, rolling resistance, and vibration losses.

Zipp’s ABLC Sawtooth Technology uses an intricate dimpling pattern to improve aero efficiency. Zipp’s use of hookless (straight side) rims in the 404 Firecrest is integral to making you faster. With hookless, the transition between the tyre and the rim is more seamless and aero. Zipp’s hookless rims have more efficient resin distribution, which means lighter, stronger wheels. At the centre of the 404 Firecrest Tubeless Disc-brake is a versatile and durable new hubset, the German-engineered ZR1 DB. If you had to choose just one wheel for road riding and racing, the 404 Firecrest Tubeless Disc brake is a savvy and speedy choice.

Features:

  • Versatile aero wheelset for the modern road bike with tubeless and hookless rim profile
  • Optimised tyre bed for easy tyre installation
  • Wide 23mm rim profile creates a better tyre interface to be fast on the road
  • New ZR1 DB hub is engineered in Germany with better seal design for improved durability and quicker response with 66 points of engagement
  • Ships with 12mm front and rear end caps
  • Centre locking rotor interface; lockring is included with the wheels
  • XDR or SRAM/Shimano driver bodies
  • ABLC Sawtooth dimple design helps manage air flow around the rim, and contributes to create a faster, more stable wheel
  • TSE Technology means the Firecrest’s precise rim layup results in greater all-around efficiency for greater speed through reduced wind resistance, rolling resistance, gravity, and vibration losses
