Zipp 454 NSW Carbon Tubeless Clincher Wheelset
Description
Zipp 454 NSW Carbon Tubeless Clincher Wheelset The Zipp 454 NSW Carbon Tubeless Clincher Wheelset amalgamates the brand's most advanced technologies with state of the art materials and manufacturing techniques to realise multifaceted performance across a gamut of riding situations. Whether charging along in the chain gang, on a solo breakaway or punching relentlessly over heavily undulating terrain, the 454 NSW delivers with aplomb. Sophisticated carbon materials and resins are utilised within the rim structure to afford low weight and high lateral stiffness. These highly developed materials are moulded into an innovatory SawTooth rim profile that features Hyperfoil undulations. This irregular pattern combines with the aerodynamically honed rim cross-section to elicit the lowest possible drag and highest crosswind stability. HexFin ABLC surface dimples complement by smoothing the airflow over the rim's surface to lower drag further. A broad internal rim width allows tyres to sit with a superior profile that sees increased sidewall support. This improved tyre silhouette lowers rolling resistance, improves comfort and increases cornering grip for an altogether faster ride. The internal structure is compatible with tubeless-ready or standard clincher tyres to offer the rider a broad range of choices in line with personal preferences and riding styles. The Showstopper carbon brake track possesses moulded-in sipes and these, along with the specialised surface treatment, help to clear debris and escalate the friction rate for enhanced stopping power, even in the wet. The Cognition hubs have super smooth, sealed bearings while the Axial Clutch freehub mechanism markedly reduces drag when coasting. The venerable Sapim CX-Ray spokes complete the build by linking everything together via neat and reliable, radial and 2-cross lacing patterns. Includes QR end caps Quick release skewers Highlights A multifaceted wheelset that performs across a huge scope of fast paced riding scenarios The full carbon rim is realised from the finest materials to promote a high stiffness to weight ratio Undulating 53/58mm rim depth provides the foundations for versatile performance within any ride A Sawtooth rim profile features nature inspired Hyperfoil undulations that have been engineered to lower drag and dramatically increase crosswind stability HexFin ABLC dimples and ridges smooth the airflow across the rim?s surface to further lower drag Wide internal rim width reduces rolling resistance, improves comfort and enhances cornering grip Tubeless-ready or standard clincher compatibility opens up use to huge range of tyre set ups Showstopper brake track gives powerful and consistent braking, even on the wet Cognition hub has super smooth bearings, a disengaging Axial Clutch mechanism for reduced drag when freewheeling
