Zipp 303 XPLR S Carbon Front Wheel Tubeless The Zipp 303 XPLR S Carbon Tubeless Front Wheel is a purpose-built revolution for the modern gravel racer who refuses to choose between aerodynamic speed and rugged capability. Designed to thrive where the pavement ends, this wheel features a striking 54mm rim depth that slices through the wind, providing the aero-efficiency typically reserved for the tarmac. However, the true magic lies in its massive 32mm internal rim width. By creating a more stable foundation for high-volume tyres, it allows you to run pressures significantly below 30psi, effectively dampening high-frequency vibrations and keeping you fresher for those final, decisive kilometres. Unrivalled Control and Compliance When the terrain turns technical, the 303 XPLR S offers a level of composure that standard road-width wheels simply cannot match. The ultra-wide hookless rim profile provides superior sidewall support, preventing tyre squirm during aggressive cornering and ensuring a massive contact patch for maximum traction. Built with a robust 24-hole 2-cross pattern and Sapim CX Sprint spokes, this wheel is engineered to withstand the relentless battering of flint, roots, and washboard descents. It isn't just about surviving the ride; it’s about maintaining momentum and confidence when everyone else is feathering their brakes. Optimized Engineering for the Long Haul Every detail of the Zipp 303 XPLR S is refined for the specific demands of 700c gravel adventures. From the seamless Centre Lock disc brake integration to the dependable carbon steel cartridge bearings, this wheel is as easy to maintain as it is fast to ride. Optimized specifically for 40c to 60c tubeless tyres, it bridges the gap between traditional gravel setups and mountain bike levels of grip without sacrificing an ounce of speed. Backed by Zipp’s prestigious Lifetime Warranty and a generous 135kg system weight limit, this is a long-term investment in your performance that promises to turn your most ambitious bikepacking goals or podium dreams into a reality.
