ZIPP front wheel 28" 303 SW Carbon | Tubeless | Center Lock | 12x100 mm thru axle including AXS Wheel Sensor
The Zipp 303 SW wheels offer you optimum performance on all surfaces, whether road, gravel or cobblestone, these modern classics can impress in all conditions.
Their AXS wheel sensors integrated into the rim profile monitor the tire pressure in real time, without the need for an external component on the valve stem. This allows you to check and optimize your tire pressure values at any time while riding. Fine-tuning the air pressure allows you to adapt your speed and performance to changing conditions in the best possible way. Before the start, a green light shows you whether the tire pressure is correct and during the ride, real-time monitoring on your bike computer helps you to find the ideal setting and detect potential problems at an early stage.
The 40 millimeter high rim profile of the 303 SW is based on the design of the Zipp 303 XPLR Gravel rims. With their 33 millimeter wide rim profiles with an inner width of 25 millimeters, they offer excellent aerodynamics and low rolling resistance. The rims are therefore perfect for wide tires and modern setups with reduced tire pressure. Thanks to the wide profiles, the tires deform less, which further reduces rolling resistance. The combination of wider tires, larger volume and lower air pressure provides noticeably more comfort and reduces fatigue on demanding terrain. Impacts are absorbed by the tire and wheel system and not by the rider. The optimized rim profiles also improve the airflow between the tire and rim and increase aerodynamic efficiency when using wider tires. The rims are optimized for tire widths between 30 and 35 millimetres.
A revised carbon layup, which has improved impact resistance by almost 10 percent, ensures increased durability. Its special design protects the tire from hard impacts that could otherwise lead to a puncture. At the center of the wheel is the proven ZR1 hub set, which ensures high durability and smooth running with its high-quality stainless steel bearings.
Total System Efficiency (TSE)
The 303 SW wheels were developed using the TSE approach. The development goal was to find the best possible wheel design to overcome the speed barriers that exist under realistic riding conditions. These include wind resistance, gravity and rolling resistance as well as vibration losses in poor road conditions.
Zipp Lifetime Warranty
Zipp grants you a lifetime warranty on your Zipp wheel if used properly. The warranty also covers racing use and damage caused by riding errors as long as the wheel has been used for its intended purpose. The warranty is only valid for the original purchaser and proof of purchase is mandatory!
NOTE: Due to the hookless profile, the Zipp 303 SW wheels are only suitable for use with ETRTO-compliant tubeless tires. However, the corresponding tubeless tires can be used on the wheels with the TPU tube (optimized for use with the wheel sensor) included in the scope of delivery. You can find an overview of all compatible tires for your Zipp Hookless wheel here.
