The Zipp 404 Firecrest Tubeless Disc Brake Wheelset is a race-proven powerhouse designed for speed, versatility, and reliability. With a deep racing pedigree, the 404 Firecrest continues to be Zipp’s iconic choice for riders seeking optimal performance. Its 58mm rim depth delivers superior aerodynamics, making it the perfect wheelset for road races, triathlons, time trials, gran fondos, and tackling diverse terrains.

Built for modern performance, the wheelset’s 23mm internal width supports wider tubeless tyres at lower air pressures for enhanced ride efficiency, comfort, and control. This design is part of Zipp’s Total System Efficiency™ (TSE™), which focuses on overcoming key obstacles to speed: wind resistance, gravity, rolling resistance, and vibration losses. Zipp’s ABLC™ Sawtooth™ technology further enhances aerodynamics with a dimpled pattern for top-tier efficiency.

The 404 Firecrest leverages hookless rim technology for a seamless tyre-to-rim connection, resulting in improved aerodynamics, reduced weight, and increased durability. At the core is the German-engineered ZR1 DB hub, offering exceptional reliability, a better seal design, and 66 points of engagement for quicker response.
