Zipp's 303 Firecrest Tubular has all the hallmark characteristics of the 303 but has been redesigned with Firecrest shaping. Zipp's Firecrest aero profile design offers superior aerodynamics, ride quality, strength, and handling of a wider rim body.
The 45 mm-deep Zipp 303 Firecrest rim outperforms much deeper rims with a traditional V-shaped cross-section. And because Firecrest technology allows Zipp to manipulate the wheel’s center of pressure, the new 303 handles like a box-section rim. It’s ultra-stable and suitable for even the windiest days. The 303’s wider 26.2 mm brake track has been optimized for wider tires, so the ride quality is better than ever
Zipp's 303 Firecrest Tubular is one of the most formidable wheels in the pro peloton, with wins in the Tour de France, Paris-Roubaix, the Tour of Flanders, and more. Yet at just 1,198 grams, the weight of the new 303 Tubular is virtually unchanged from its predecessor and remains one of the lightest carbon wheelsets anywhere.
