So apparently I need to win the lottery … The SW version is similar to the Firecrest range with dimples and a lighter / higher-end hub (MSRP $2100USD). The S model has smooth walls and a 150g heavier hub (MSRP $1400USD). [image] 303 XPLR - Zipp The Zipp 303 XPLR SW and S are the fastes…

Just a quick update. Still too chicken to run these in a race given the puncture scares. I have been running them on training rides with pathfinders 47s (I know not approved…) and yday I did get a puncture. It sealed quickly and don’t even notice until I was done and saw I had sealant all over my bi…

was it a sidewall or tread puncture?

Honestly still trying to find that out myself lol sealant is on both areas. Going to take of tire and investigate at a later date.

Not saying I recommend this but… I know a guy who runs this wheelset with a set of Road tires that are advertised as 38mm. (I think Perlie but not sure). He says he loves it. Not sure if its an ideal set up but I guess you “can” put “road” (If you count 38’s road) tires on it.

Pirelli makes a 40mm road tire now. I might throw them on at some point and test it

Vector R – Goodyear Bike This looks sweet! 40mm slick that is officially compatible

What gravel tires have people been running with the XPLR wheelset? Want to get something that is compatible to be on safe side so leaning on something from Schwalbe but there options are aplenty and naming is confusing …

Yeah same. I am looking at a set. I want to put some new Spec Traccer TLR on but I am worried they will blow up too big to fit in a Crux with the wide rim.

Cervelo S5 coming soon. Designed around ZIPP 303 XPLR with a 40m tire. XD

I have 50mm tracers and can mount them at some point on the XPLR rims and let you know what I find. My gut is rear is going to be tight but a 50mm Tracer up front and 45mm pathfinder in bike might be a sick combo :ok_hand:
