Zipp 302 Carbon Tubeless Front
Details
Zipp's 302 Tubeless rim-brake wheels deliver dependable speed for aspiring and experienced cyclists alike. These wheels provide great value and performance and are now tubeless, allowing you to run lower tire pressure for greater cornering grip and reduced rolling resistance without the risk of pinch flats. Its 45mm deep, Indianapolis-made carbon rim is optimized for low aerodynamic drag and precise handling in all riding conditions. The 302's smooth carbon rim is laced to Zipp's 76 hub using Belgian CX-Sprint spokes and brass spoke nipples to build a wheel that is fast and reliable—tough enough to thrive in the big Gran Fondo or the road less traveled, yet light enough to tackle the steepest grades. The 302 is equally suited to training rides or duking it out at your local race series.
- Tubeless design provides secure performance when riding at lower tire pressures
- New Zipp graphics and cosmetic identity that scream speed
- Dependable 76/176 hubs with Sapim CX Sprint J-bend spokes
- Ships with QR end caps and quick release skewers
Going tubeless allows you to run lower tire pressures without the added weight of a tube. Lower tire pressure has many benefits, including greater traction, lower rolling resistance over rough surfaces, and decreased risk of a puncture-related flat.
Tubeless-ready rims and tires are parts of a complete system that eliminate the need for tubes by creating an airtight chamber between the rim and tire. Liquid sealant is added to the chamber to fill small punctures and maintain air pressure while you ride.
UST (Universal Standard for Tubeless) is a specific type of tubeless system that dictates the shape of the rim and tire beads. UST rims should be paired with UST-specific tires for best results.
