The 808 is a proven winner in triathlons and time trials, and even in road races worldwide. The latest edition sports the fast, stiff, and stable Firecrest rim shape. Designed specifically to account for the differences in airflow patterns between clincher tires and tubulars, 404 and 808 Carbon Clincher far exceeds the aero performance of any other clincher wheelset in its class. Infact the 808 Firecrest is now the fastest wheelset in the world. Zipp offers a wider rim for greater vertical compliance for control and comfort on rough surfaces while increasing lateral stiffness for sprinting and cornering. The same holds true for Firecrest rims with clincher tires. And because the hook beads are farther apart, the tire itself takes on a more stable shape without adding rolling resistance. Heavy, continuous braking on carbon surfaces can cause spikes in rim temperature and tire pressure that impact performance and handling – especially with clincher tires. To solve this challenge, our US-based composites supplier created a new heat-resistant resin exclusively for Zipp. This technology improves heat dissipation so substantially that Zipp are the only carbon clinchers to pass stringent European safety testing without limitations on rider weight or brake pad options.
