Zipp 303 XPLR S carbon gravel rear wheel

Introducing the ultimate rear wheel for your bike with the Zipp 303 XPLR S carbon disc rear wheel. "Go big, go gravel," says Zipp in their description of the new gravel wheel. These wheels are specifically designed with gravel in mind, meaning they are significantly wider than regular road wheels. This offers several advantages when riding on gravel. You can ride with lower tire pressure, which means greater contact with the surface and improved comfort. Wider wheels accommodate wider tires, providing better integration between wheel and tire, which enhances aerodynamics.

The S-model is a budget-friendly version of the SW model, meaning slightly higher weight, a different hub, but otherwise the same wheel.

• Lightweight carbon construction: Provides excellent strength and durability without adding unnecessary weight.
• Center Lock brake discs: Lock ring is included.
• Hookless rim: This wheel is compatible only with tubeless tires. Zipp recommends gravel tires in widths of 40-60 mm.
