Efficiency in Every Detail
A key component of Total System Efficiency™ (TSE™), the 404 Firecrest overcomes specific barriers to speed, including wind resistance, gravity, rolling resistance, and vibration losses. Zipp’s ABLC™ Sawtooth™ Technology enhances aero efficiency with an intricate dimpling pattern, ensuring every detail contributes to the wheel’s overall performance.
Seamless Transition, Aero Advantage
The use of hookless (straight side) rims in the 404 Firecrest is integral to Making You Faster. The seamless transition between the tyre and rim enhances aerodynamics, ensuring a more efficient and aero-riding experience.
