From your local criterium to l'Alpe d'Huez, the Zipp 404 is a threat to win any race on any terrain. Numerous Tour de France stage wins and an Ironman World Championship are proof of its performance on hills, in sprints and time trialing in challenging conditions. The Zipp 404 has a fully toroidal profile for 2010, derived from over 100 hours of wind tunnel testing. This translates to a slightly wider but more aerodynamic rim, increasing stiffness and shock absorption. A more angled brake track enhances speed control.

  • New, fully toroidal rim shape results in a more aerodynamic profile, as well as a wider and stiffer rim
  • Wider tires have minimal impact on the wheel's superior aerodynamics
  • New, angled brake track improves brake modulation in poor weather
  • Third generation Advanced Boundary Layer Control (ABLC) smoothes airflow across the rim's surface and is tailored to this specific wheel
  • Visco-Elastic Constrained Layer Control (VCLC ) delivers a 10% reduction in vibration
  • Carbon Bridge technology uses Kevlar to disperse shock more evenly throughout the carbon laminate, reducing vulnerability in the rim's tire bead
  • 18 spokes lace into a stiff 17mm axle hub
  • Track adaptable
