Zipp

The definition of "road cycling" now also includes gravel and off-road, in addition to traditional roads. At the same time, bikes are evolving to meet the needs of smaller riders. Meeting these two different requirements was the driving force behind the Zipp 303 Firecrest 650b Tubeless Disc Brake wheelset. The smaller rim size provides the necessary space in frames and forks for wider tires starting from 28 mm, which offer more comfort, control, and better cornering. Thanks to the increased tire volume between the rim and the ground, the overall diameter, including the tire, resembles a standard combination of a 700c wheel and road tire. Back on the road, the 650b is a better-fitting wheel for smaller athletes who ride smaller frames. For too long, many smaller cyclists have trained and raced on standard 700c wheels, losing the advantages of a properly fitted wheel, such as improved handling and the elimination of overlap between the front wheel and toes. At the heart of the 303 650b Firecrest Tubeless is a versatile and durable hub set, the ZR1 DB, developed in Germany.

Key specifications

BIke wheel type

Ability brake type

Suitable tyre type

Width

jaw width

The rim width of a wheel refers to the inner width of the rim through which the tyre passes. It determines the size and type of tyres that can be fitted to the wheel and plays an important role in the selection of suitable tyres for a bicycle or other vehicle.

Axle system

The axle system of a wheel, such as "HR 10x120mm", provides important information about the wheel type, the axle diameter and the installation width. In this case, we are talking about a rear wheel with a 10 mm axle diameter and an installation width of 120 mm. This information is crucial for the assembly and compatibility of the wheel with the bicycle frame and influences its stability and performance.
