Description
Zipp 858 NSW Carbon Tubeless Rear WheelZipp's ultimate aero weapon is now tubeless ready. That means you get the many aero advantages of the 858 NSW Tubeless rim-brake rear wheel with the added benefit of increased cornering grip and compliance with reduced rolling resistance. The rear wheels' 19mm internal width is optimised for running wider tyres at reduced air pressure. The 858 NSW's undulating 77/82mm-deep rim shape, the brand's proprietary Sawtooth profile, takes design cues from nature for Zipp's highest performing wheel when it comes to aero efficiency and crosswind stability. These structures inspired Zipp advanced development engineers to, for the first time, systematically apply biomimicry to solve the complex challenge of designing a wheel, with the undulating Hyperfoil nodes, that reduce both aerodynamic drag and side force. Simply put, the 858 NSW Tubeless is ideal for those focused on triathlon, time trials, or aggressive road riding.SawtoothSawTooth is the name given to Zipp NSW's patented variable depth 53/58mm rims. Developed utilising the principles of the emerging science of biomimicry, Zipp engineers began the rigorous aero development process of SawTooth utilising the wind tunnel, CFD, and real-world testing. The result is a rim shape that takes nature's most elegant design solutions and combines engineering precision to deliver a wheel that performs unlike any made before. This patented new rim shape achieves something conventional aero wheels cannot; it simultaneously reduces both aerodynamic drag and side force for the ultimate in AeroBalance. Sawtooth accomplishes this with a series of patented fin-shaped Hyperfoil nodes along the inner diameter of the rim that works together with Zipp's new HexFin ABLC dimples for improved airflow. The result is Zipp's highest performing rear wheel ever realized with both aero-drag reduction and reduced side force at all wind yaw angles. This is important because higher wind yaw angles are where bike handling is most affected by the wind.ShowstopperZipp's industry-leading Showstopper brake track continues to evolve and improve, providing unmatched stopping power and modulation regardless of weather conditions or the length of the descent. Showstopper is a complimenting pairing of a directional, moulded-in, texture with silicon carbide particles suspended in the surface resin. The current media blast process applied to all Zipp rims increases the surface roughness of the brake track providing the rider with consistent and responsive braking.Axial ClutchWith Cognition's Axial Clutch technology, Zipp has reduced drag by disengaging the ratchet mechanism when coasting. With less internal hub drag a rider can pedal less when drafting in a headwind, achieve higher speeds when coasting in an aero tuck, or opt to stop pedalling a moment sooner before entering a corner and bank that wattage for use exiting the corner. Axial Clutch technology also allows riders to maintain speed through corners that don't require braking input, thereby increasing corner exit speeds. Inside the Axial Clutch mechanism, Zipp uses magnets, rather than steel springs, to move and engage Zipp's lightweight Metal Injection Moulded (MIM) ratchet rings for unmatched reliability and consistent operation. With 36 points of engagement that all interlock simultaneously, there isn't a more secure freehub mechanism on the market.ImpressThis rear-wheel employs Zipp's ImPress graphics technology, which prints graphics directly on the wheel, to help allow the dimples to do what they were designed to do - help control vortex shedding, the rate at which air sheds off the wheel. Managing this is crucial to stability.Features: Rim Material: Carbon with UD Fibre finish with Impress technology Use: Road Axle Type: QR 135mm (quick release) Internal Rim Width: 18mm Rim Depth: 82mm Rim Profile: Symmetrical Brake Compatibility: Rim Brake Size: 700c Tyre Compatibility: Clincher, Tubeless Ready Surface Texture: ABLC HexFin Nipple Material: Aluminium Nipple Anti-rotation: Sapim Secure-loc Spoke Type: CX-Ray - Black Spoke Count: 24 Spoke Pattern: 2 Cross Hub: Cognition Axle Material: Aluminium Bearings: Cartridge - Stainless Steel Driver Mechanism: Axial Clutch Driver Body Material: Aluminium Max Tyre Pressure: 125psi Max Recommended Rider Weight: 250lbs Single or Pair: Single rear wheelTechnologies: New Zipp graphics and cosmetic identity that screams speed, applied using Zipp's ImPress direct-print technology. 19mm internal width and tubeless compatibility for optimisation of wider tyres with lower tyre pressure. Cognition hub rolls efficiently whether you are pedalling or coasting. Its Axial Clutch technology allows the freehub's ratcheting mechanism to deliver half the mechanical drag of conventional three-pal hubs. Sawtooth rim with Hyperfoil nodes and HexFin ABLC dimple pattern for top aero and crosswind-stability performance with an undulating 77/82mm rim depth. Industry-leading Showstopper brake track: powerful and consistent braking, even on the wet. Ships with QR end caps and quick-release skewer.
