No size recommendations are made for off-road/gravel use, because of the widely different conditions that people tend to ride – UK gravel being very different to US gravel, for example – but a suggested maximum of 50-55mm covers almost all gravel tyres and bikes.

I’m from Austria and my english is not good! It’s very informative. On the road they feel very much like a 303, perhaps not as vibrant and lively, but for sure they feel as fast, smooth, and the braking surface is effective and predictable. To get decent stopping power with cantis, you have to make most of the mechanical advantage and have the cable yoke set quite low, which increases power but shortens the distance the pads move per every mm of lever stroke. Steve. Even on windier days the performance in sudden crosswinds was excellent. I made sure to test them on a wide variety of roads and in all conditions, and as a wheelset that can suit anything they certainly do feel fast. When you see a great looking pair of Zipp carbon clinchers for $1500 you have to wonder one of two things: What's wrong with them and if there is no catch, than why have Zipp wheels always been a good deal north of 2K? Zipp went with a tubeless, 19mm rim on the latest 303 NSW to make them more competitive with what others had already done in this rim brake carbon clincher wheelset category. So far, I’m more into the 303’s (I just love the way they look lol) but if I can get a good price for the aeolus, it will be hard to choose.

The sales guy said they have never been ridden and have been sitting around the store for months. In 2018 Zipp did it again. My current top-ranked stores include Merlin, Competitive Cyclist, Chain Reaction Cycles, Tredz, and Power Meter City. In The Know Cycling is for cyclists who want to know – but don’t have the time to do all the research and comparisons to figure out – what gear they should get next and where they should get it. Cero may be different. Hi Steve, PURE TRAIL SPEED. I find the 303 Firecrest very comfortable on the road and handle with a kind of riding on rails confidence you want in every wheelset but find in few. In 2018 Zipp did it again. Steve. That, perhaps along with other things they may have done with the rims made those stiffer wheels.

I am 6’0, 72Kg, 57 yrs, and somewhat new to cycling, about 22 months in… There is a lot to learn… But I train hard, race my competitive friends, FTP now 280 – goal of 300 before I’m 60. I also tested the wheels with Continental's 25mm GP5000 TL, which inflated to measure 27.5mm, and various WTB gravel tyres, all 40mm, which inflated up to 42mm.

I would like to see a comparison with the new Mavic Cosmic Pro USB Tubeless wheels / wheel- tire combinations. I couldn’t tell any difference. Tubeless wheel valves performed well, no leak of air from the rim. Thank to your reviews, I learned about the bontrager Aeolus xxx 4 and I’m waiting for my local dealer’s offer.

The new 303S model wheelset uses some firsts for Zipp, including tubeless compatibility using straight-sided rim walls, also known as hookless. It is available at the best prices through these links to recommended stores in the US/CA Competitive Cyclist and in UK/EU at Tredz where you get 10% off w/code ITKTDZ10. The 302 vs 303 is a great example of the diminishing returns we get as we near the peak of cycling technology and how reverse engineered price point product can benefit dramatically from cutting edge product development like the Firecrest and NSW wheels. For sure there is nothing wrong. A new NSW line of carbon road bike wheels was introduced including a new Zipp 303 NSW. Would you recommend the wheel to a friend? I am 6’4 and 15 stone I ride 150 mils 11.000ft in most weeks . Getting the rub on one side only suggests to me that you might not have the calipers centered. With a 45mm deep Indianapolis-made carbon rim, optimized for low aerodynamic drag and precise handling in all riding conditions, the 302 Carbon Clincher delivers the ride that Zipp wheels are renowned for at a price that makes Zipp carbon quality and performance more attainable than ever.

Would this change be worth the money I’d spend or the difference beetween this two sets (and maybe also the aeolus xxx 4) will be too small ? Your email address will not be published. Once up to speed they maintain your momentum very well, riding like wheels 15mm deeper on the flats. I´ll report back if I find out something interesting .

What do the manufacturers say about it? So no Danny Mac style riding perhaps, but you can take these off-road onto gravel trails with confidence. – What You Need on Every Ride. The new 303S rim shape is wider than the 302, both externally to 27mm but also internally, with a 23mm bead-to-bead measurement (up from 16.5mm on the 302), something that is possible as they are solely for disc brakes. If you were to jump straight down from a 25mm tyre at 100psi it will no doubt feel quite different, but to me the tyres didn't feet soft or squirmy even under hard cornering. But these brake better than other wheels Nate, Moose and I have evaluated in the same and lower price ranges as the 303 Firecrest.

If you want to run tubes it is still possible, so long as you use a tubeless-ready tyre, although this does defeat the purpose somewhat.

Instead, Zipp has tried a different approach – one that aims to replicate real riding, looking at all major areas that affect riding speed: wind resistance (aerodynamics), gravity, rolling resistance and vibrational losses. I mean, when sprinting or climbing out of the saddle, do those high volume tyres “cushion” the load and deform before the wheel itself starts to bend?

I thought you said nsw 303 are the tops vs enve and all ? Its more than the published max rim width at 26.4mm. I’ve had a serious look at the Bontrager Aeolus XXX 4. Fantasy Cycling: game [at] road.cc The wheelset performed very well throughout testing, with no reliability issues, and although the freehub performance is a little slower to engage than some other wheelsets, the spokes, general quality and performance were still very good. What do you think of the new brand Scribe. A new NSW line of carbon road bike wheels was introduced including a new Zipp 303 NSW. Best, Steve. If it’s tubeless-ready, the rim tape will say so. Want to save yourself money and time and support this site’s ability to get you more unbiased reviews? Hi Steve, thanks for the decent review. – Choosing Tire Size, ROAD DISC BIKES AND WHEELS Update : the aeolus 4’s cost 2400 euros in France (about 2700 USD) and the local dealer wants only to make 10% off wich makes about 2150 euros. – Electronic Groupsets

However, seeing the technology separation Zipp has kept between the NSW and Firecrest lines that help justify the price difference, I don’t see them being able to pass more technology down in the next year or two, for example, 19mm tubeless rims, without blurring those lines.

Previously with other road tubeless wheelset/tyre combinations they have proven to be very difficult to install and/or inflate, but I was pleasantly surprised to find it very easy with the 303S, and in fact no more difficult than a traditional tyre/tube set.

These are great all-rounders.

This includes a lifetime warranty for defects for the original owner and also lifetime impact and damage replacement, although a cost may be applicable depending on the exact damage cause and the country you are in, as is often the case with other brands who offer a similar policy. – All-Around Road Disc Wheels Using a 3-pawl, 32-tooth ratchet setup is sufficient for most applications, and in normal road riding you are unlikely to notice a difference unless you have come from a hub design with many more engagement points. Steve.
