Zipp 303 XPLR SW Wheelset

The Zipp 303 XPLR SW isn’t just a road wheel repurposed for gravel, it’s a purpose-built system engineered from the ground up to be the fastest wheelset on gravel, period. With its mega-wide rim profile and seamless integration with Zipp-model Goodyear gravel racing tires, the 303 XPLR SW maximizes speed, control, and efficiency across the roughest terrain.

Most gravel wheels simply prioritize stiffness and low weight. Zipp took a different path. Gravel introduces unique resistance from washboard surfaces, vibrations, and constant micro-impacts, all of which sap speed. To overcome these barriers, Zipp applied Total System Efficiency (TSE) specifically for gravel racing and adventure riding.

The ultra-wide rim increases internal air volume, allowing riders to run lower pressures without tire squirm. This expands traction, confidence, and cornering grip while dramatically reducing vibration-induced energy loss. The rim shape also creates a smooth, uninterrupted interface with modern gravel tires , delivering unmatched aerodynamic efficiency on gravel.
