- Description
Shallower wheels like the 202 and 303 have proven that optimizing the shape of the rim can yield greater aerodynamic gains than simply increasing its depth. But what happens when you combine a sophisticated rim shape with an ultra-deep 108mm profile? You get the phenomenal aero performance of the Zipp® 1080.
When aerodynamics matter above all else, athletes like 70.3 star Terenzo Bozzone and world time trial champion Fabian Cancellara pair the 1080 front wheel with a Sub-9 or Super-9 disc. But if you need the versatility of a spoked wheel in back, the rear 1080 is actually more aero than many discs. And, thanks to its toroidal profile and ABLC™ dimples, the 1080 is so stable in crosswinds that smaller riders like Linsey Corbin and Carlos Sastre can ride it with confidence. At 667gr for the tubular rim, the 1080 is light and quick enough that even hilly and technical courses will succumb to its all-out aero assault.

Great that you're interested in our carbon wheels for tubular tires! Here's what you need to know about them:
Lightweight and Fast: Our carbon wheels are designed for tubular tires, which means they are lighter than traditional wire bead tires. This makes your bike more agile and accelerates faster.
Professional Performance: Many professionals prefer tubular tires because they offer an impressive combination of performance and reliability. With our carbon wheels, you'll get the most out of your bike.
Smooth Riding Experience: The seamless construction of tubular tires provides a smooth riding experience and offers better grip in corners. That means more control and fun while riding.
But how do tubular tires differ from other versions like tubeless, clincher, and tubular tires/tubular?
Tubular Tires/Tubular: This version uses a seamless rubber tire that is glued directly onto the rim. They offer the best performance but are slightly more difficult to mount and require special rims.
Tubeless: Unlike tubular tires, tubeless tires do not use inner tubes. Instead, sealant is poured into the tire to seal small punctures. Tubeless tires offer similar benefits to tubular tires but are slightly easier to mount and maintain.
Clincher: Clincher tires are the most common type of tires. They have a separate tire and tube construction that is clinched onto the rim. Clincher tires are easy to mount and offer good all-around performance but are usually heavier than tubular and tubeless tires.
So if you're looking for the highest performance and a premium riding experience, our carbon wheels for tubular tires are the perfect choice for you!

Zipp
Motorsport engineer Leigh Sargent was actually specialized in perfecting the aerodynamics of Indy 500 vehicles. As the passionate cyclist became more and more involved with carbon wheels and disc wheels, he recognized the potential and founded the Zipp company in Indianapolis, the cradle of American motorsports. Two years after its foundation, the first Ironman in Hawaii was won with Zipp wheels. Already an insider tip in triathlon, it took until 2000 for the US brand to make the leap into professional cycling to the Belgian Lotto team. Ever since the company equipped the CSC team in 2003, it has been a major player in cycling.
