Zipp 808 Firecrest Clincher Wheel - Front 18H Black

LAST IN STOCK - FRONT ONLY

The Zipp 808 Firecrest Carbon Clincher has been proven to be one of the fastest, most stable deep-dish wheels around. Zipp decided it could be better. They made it laterally stiffer and improved the hubs so it transfers power better and rolls faster.

The rim has remained the same. It still features 82mm of depth and the Firecrest toroidal shape, bulging out to 27.5mm at the widest point is almost as fast as a disc wheel in some conditions, and actually faster than others. The wheel is so fast that it caused Zipp to drop the 1080 from their lineup. The big differences are that they're lighter, 1885g for the set, and behave much better in crosswinds. Lighter is great for any acceleration and any time the road tilts up, and easy handling is crosswinds comes in handy every ride.
