The American carbon fibre wheel specialist have created a brand new, high performance wheel, the Zipp 404 Firestrike Carbon Clincher Front Wheel 2015. Completely redesigned, the Firestrike® has been developed from the renowned Firecrest® rim design. With a mathematically designed rim shape, providing sublime aerodynamics, handling and performance.

Created with the help of professional athletes as well as Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) design to make the most technologically advanced Zipp wheel yet. The new design offers a 34% reduction in side force yet holds onto the same exceptional aerodynamic properties that made the Firecrest rim so popular.

A Showstopper™ brake track pattern addresses the issue of wet weather brake performance. Offering a Silicon Carbide (SiC) material for powerful, assured stopping power whether in the wet or the dry. Never have those nerve racking edge of the saddle moments again as you try to slow down for a hairpin.

The Aerodynamic Boundary Layer Control (ABLC®) that made the 404 Firecrest Wheels a market leader in performance has been refined and improved upon for 2015. This makes the Firestrike even more stable in windy conditions.

A 17.25 millimetre wide clincher bead means there is less tyre deformation, allowing the tyre to sit more snuggly on the rim and so improves cornering.

The 88v10 hub features ceramic bearings for a smooth and durable ride. This also adds torsional stiffness to the wheel when paired with the virtual 3x lacing of the spokes. If that was not all the all new hub shaves a further 20 grams off the old 88 hub.

Finishing this exceptional wheel off is the new and improved white graphics. Impress™ lasered graphics have been added for improved durability and weigh less than standard stickers.

A versatile wheel, in a clincher design. Tough and lightweight at 725 grams. The ideal choice for those looking for an aerodynamic and fast road, timetrial or triathlon wheel.

Includes: Zipp Platinum Pro Evo Brake Pads, Rim tape, Zipp Black Titanium Skewer, Zipp Valve Extension, Zipp 700c x 23mm inner tube, Zipp wheel bag
