Zipp 454 NSW Carbon Wheelset C1

The Zipp 454 NSW Carbon Wheelset C1 is a high-performance tubeless-ready wheelset engineered for road racing. Its 58mm deep Sawtooth rim profile with Hyperfoils delivers aerodynamic efficiency and stability in all wind conditions. The wider, hookless rims allow for lower-pressure tyres, reducing rolling resistance and damping vibrations, while a 28mm tyre offers the best balance of speed and comfort.

Featuring Zipp’s Total System Efficiency (TSE) technology, the 454 NSW combats the main barriers to speed: wind resistance, gravity, rolling resistance, and vibration losses. The wheelset is equipped with ZR1 SL hubs with ceramic bearings and 66 points of engagement, providing smooth power transfer and reliable performance front to rear. This complete wheelset is ideal for triathletes, time trialists, and road racers seeking maximum efficiency and speed.
