Faster than ever before with the same Zipp durability, the 108mm-deep Zipp 1080 is the World’s fastest non-disc wheel. Crosswinds make a disc wheel a real bear especially for a smaller, lighter rider, and the 1080 may be a perfect alternative. Disc wheels can also be heavy, and thus do not accelerate as quickly.
Built with Zipps Carbon Bridge technology for impact resistance and external spoke nipples for serviceability, the 1080 Tubular gives you Zipp speed without a hint of delicacy.
Fabian Cancellara rode the 1080 when he dominated Beijing’s time trial course. When seconds count the 1080 is a fast choice.
Please Note:
The Zipp 1080 rim is not compatible with the PowerTap hub. This is due to the severe spoke angle caused by the very large flange of the PowerTap hub combined with the very small ERD of the 1080 rim. This leads to premature nipple and spoke thread failures that Zipp deems unacceptable.
Zipp will not build this combination and will void the rim warranty on any 1080 rim built onto any PowerTap hub.
If this sounds like something that is relevant to your interests, our recommendation is to substitute a Sub9 with PowerTap in place of a 1080 tubular.
Another word of warning:
The following bike models may chain stay interference issues with the 1080. This is more of an issue for heavier and stronger riders (>170 lbs), but Zipp strongly recommends you test the compatibility under riding loads and conditions before making a purchase
* Cervelo P3, P4
* Ridley Dean and Noah
* Scott Plasma
* Giant Trinity Alliance
* Argon 18 E-114
