Market: Wheel manufacturer Zipp has now optimized its popular 202 for disc brakes.
The 202 Firecrest carbon clincher wheels feature the same aerodynamic properties as the other Firecrest wheels from Zipp. This makes them suitable for both paved and unpaved surfaces. The rim depth is 32 millimeters. The 188 hubs feature a virtual 3X tension, which is designed to increase the strength of the Sapim CX-Ray® spokes.
