Zipp 3Zero Moto Tubeless Rear Wheel 29" Disc Brake 6-Bolt 12x148mm Boost 32 Spokes SR 11/12spd

The Zipp 3Zero Moto Tubeless Disc Brake 6-Bolt 29 Zm2 Rear Wheel is engineered for riders who demand pure trail speed combined with unmatched durability and control. Drawing inspiration from motorsports, this carbon wheelset offers a pioneering design that sets it apart from traditional rims. Its unique single-wall construction provides exceptional "ankle compliance," allowing the rim to flex locally during cornering to maintain grip and traction, much like a runner’s ankle adjusts on sharp turns. This advanced flexibility means you stay on your line and avoid unwanted deflections, saving precious seconds on every trail.

At the heart of this wheel is the German-engineered ZM2 hubset, featuring 12 pawls and 132 points of engagement for lightning-fast response and improved sealing for enhanced durability in rough terrain. The hookless carbon rim is optimized for tubeless tires, enabling lower pressures for superior traction and a smoother ride over rocky surfaces. With its asymmetrical design and Sapim Secure-Loc nipples, the wheel balances strength, precision, and ease of maintenance. Available in five striking Speed Line graphic colors, the 3Zero Moto wheel offers both high-performance function and standout style.

Whether you're tackling technical descents or aggressive trail riding, this rear wheel delivers exceptional impact resistance and reduces the chance of pinch flats. The combination of compliance and robust construction helps minimize rider fatigue, allowing you to push harder and longer. Backed by Zipp’s lifetime warranty, this wheel is built to perform and endure the most demanding mountain biking conditions.

What It’s Good For
