Zipp's 303 S Series Tubeless for disc brakes offers today's cyclists the versatility they demand and the speed they seek. Drawing on its big wins in the spring classics, these 303 wheels also retain their 45mm rim height, ideal in all conditions - but they get a much wider rim width to improve the wheels' qualities and running characteristics in almost every measurable way. Road bikes today are much more versatile than ever before. The 3030 S offers a completely new rim profile and design to further enhance rider performance on this type of bike. These wheels are made for tubeless use and with disc brakes, allowing the use of wide tires with low air pressure - at racing speeds on and off paved roads. The 303 S is one of our lightest wheels and is optimized for 28 mm tires for the best aerodynamics. However, it can also cope with wide Grabel tires up to 50 mm. The 303 S uses design attachments from the higher-quality 303 Firecrest Tubeless for disc brakes, making it more efficient and therefore faster. This is achieved by reducing the following factors: air resistance, rolling resistance, fatigue and weight. The innovation responsible for this is the design of the 303-S series rim. The profile is just as 45 mm high as its predecessor, the 302 for disc brakes. The new rim is 2 mm wider on the outside, namely 27 mm, and the rim well is a whole 7 mm wider at 23 mm. The rim platform is fastest with 28 mm tires. Due to its width, the rim optimizes the tire shape and thus allows lower air pressure. This helps to reduce rolling resistance and makes riding more comfortable. The result of all this is a power saving of 10 watts compared to top-of-the-range wheels from the competition at 40 km/h on a flat road with 28 mm tires, as internal tests at Zipp have shown. These groundbreaking wheels also come with brand new decals that set them apart from the peloton - and at an attractive price.
