ZIPP 202 NSW Carbon Disc Brake Rear Wheel
The Zipp 202 NSW is crafted with the climbing specialist in mind - bringing weightless speed to the steepest of grades, empowering riders to reach the summit faster on our lightest wheelset ever. However, the 202 NSW does more than climb fast; it provides aero advantage for the race to the climb and is designed for confidence on the getaway descent. Building on the carbon layup found in the state-of-the-art 353 NSW, the 202 NSW features our Biomimetic Laminate which utilizes mixed-modulus carbon types to maximize stiffness at the spoke bed and toughness at the tire bed, mimicking the function of a muscle tendon.
The carbon fibers selected for the outer diameter of the rim prioritize strength and durability to withstand impacts from the road, while the inner diameter of the rim uses higher modulus fibers to maintain consistent spoke tension under dynamic riding loads. The result is a rim design that allows for a sub-1100-gram wheelset that reacts to your every input without sacrificing durability and the aerodynamic advantage of its 35mm rim depth on the descent.
