Zipp 202 NSW DB Tubeless Ready Center Lock Road Wheels 2026
Couldn't load pickup availability
The Zipp 202 NSW was designed with climbing specialists in mind, offering weightless speed even on the steepest gradients and allowing riders to reach the summit faster with our lightest wheelset ever. However, the 202 NSW does more than climb quickly; it offers an aerodynamic advantage on the approach to the climb and is designed to inspire confidence on descents. Building on the carbon lay-up found in the cutting-edge 353 NSW, the 202 NSW features our biomimetic laminate, which uses different types of carbon with varying moduli to maximise stiffness at the spokes and strength at the tyre, mimicking the function of a muscle tendon. The carbon fibres selected for the rim's outer diameter prioritise strength and durability to withstand road impacts, while the inner diameter uses higher-modulus fibres to maintain consistent spoke tension under dynamic riding loads. The result is a rim design that enables a wheelset weighing under 1100 grams, responsive to every input without sacrificing durability or the aerodynamic advantage of its 35 mm profile on descents.
- German-designed ZR1 SL hubs with lightweight Alpina Hyperlite spokes in a crossed 20-hole configuration.
- Highly corrosion-resistant ceramic bearings and 66 efficient engagement points ensure every watt is transferred smoothly to the road as you tackle the challenges ahead
- Rim depth 35 mm
- Weighs just 1090 grams
- Internal rim width: 23 mm
- Lifetime warranty
