Zipp 303 XPLR S B1 Carbon 700c Rear Wheel

The Zipp 303 XPLR S is big upgrade for gravel riders without a big price tag. This wheelset borrows key innovations from Zipp's premium wide gravel wheelset, it is affordable and robust for discerning gravel riders. This wheelset is the fastest on gravel, thanks to its mega-wide rim that integrates seamlessly with approved gravel racing tyres. In gravel, resistance and vibrations from bumpy surfaces create a barrier that slows riders down. To combat this, Zipp applied Total System Efficiency specifically to the challenges of gravel. The wide profile increases air volume, allowing for lower tyre pressures without squirm. That means you mitigate surface vibrations while maintaining grip when cornering or traction while climbing. The rim profile also creates a seamless transition with gravel tyres for unsurpassed aero efficiency on gravel. And while the 303 XPLR S is built big, it’s light to keep you fast and fresh for those long, fulfilling days in the saddle. The Zipp 303 XPLR S is compatible only with approved tyres.

Aerodynamics

Gravel is getting faster, so better tyre-wheel transition and deeper rim translates to saved Watts.

Vibration Loss

Zipp's wide rim unlocks lower tyre pressures to help smooth rough roads, reducing rider fatigue.

Control

A wider rim allows you to lower pressure to the ideal level for gravel without squirm or risk of impact damage to your wheel.

The Perfect Pairing

Your tyre is your connection to the ground, making tyres a critical component for speed. That is why Zipp designed its XPLR tyres in a radically different process: Start with an ideal gravel tyre and create a wheel around it. Enter two great gravel options in the Goodyear Fitment Series for Zipp, the Goodyear XPLR SLICK and Goodyear XPLR INTER.
