Zipp 202 Firecrest Carbon Clincher 700c Wheel Rear

The Zipp 202 Firecrest Carbon Clincher Wheel is a stiff, lightweight and aerodynamic carbon clincher speed weapon ideal for every road you travel. At 1450g, the 202 Firecrest wheelset is the lightest entry in the Firecrest Carbon Clincher lineup. The Zipp 202 retains the classic 32mm rim depth of its tubular predecessor though, with the Firecrest profile, now has a wider 25.4 mm max rim width. The results redefine what’s possible with a do-it-all classic road wheel. These Zipp road wheels are now laced to the maintenance-free 77/177 hubset, with excellent durability and improved bearing protection, all with no pre-load adjustment needed. The newly designed quick release skewers with a wider more ergonomic handle provide more leverage for opening and closing. For those looking for a wider gear range, or tackling especially extreme terrain, a XD driver body for 177 is sold separately and easily installed to allow for more cassette options including a 10-42. The hubset is designed to swap driver bodies without the need to re-dish the wheel. Firecrest rims have a near-constant width from brake track to spoke bed to improve aerodynamics and better control airflow. Zipp engineers have used Computational Fluid Dynamics software analysis to maximize aerodynamics and minimize wind-produced torque, resulting in a 202 Firecrest Carbon Clincher that is faster and better handling than a classic road wheel. The rim shape improves stability by moving the wheel’s centre of pressure to sit almost directly over the steering axis, where wind-produced steering torque has a minimal effect. Zipps exclusive resin, based on materials used in motorsports braking systems, effectively tolerates the incredible spikes in heat caused by braking to provide unrivalled reliability and confidence inspiring stopping power. Each 202 Firecrest Carbon Clincher wheel comes with Tangente Platinum Pro Evo brake pads, Zipp Integrated Valve Extender with valve-core wrench, rim tape and quick release. Available in two decal options, the stealthy Matte Black or the distinctive Matte White decals.
