2009 Zipp Flashpoint 40 Front Wheel

Zipp Flashpoint 40 Clincher Front Wheel:
The Zipp Flashpoint wheel series used to be one of the best kept secrets in your arsenal; a pure weapon in technology and aerodynamics that could be unleashed come race day. The secret is not out in the open and the economical Flashpoint wheels are making their move as a major player in the market for high-performance aerodynamic wheels. The technology found in Zipp wheels has trickled down with the use of non-dimpled molds, which give the same rim depth and quality as the extremely popular 38mm (Zipp 303), 58mm (Zipp 404), and 82mm (Zipp 808) Zipp rims.

Flashpoint 40 (38mm): Climb, accelerate, and spring with the best of them! Whether using Flashpoint 40s for a training ride, criterium, circuit race, or triathlon, you can be sure you will not be sacrificing weight for aerodynamics. The Flashpoint 40 wheel preserves nearly all the aerodynamic advantages gained from deeper Flashpoint rims, while maintaining a super low weight. Precision handling, lightweight, will have you riding with confidence even on the most windy and technical riding conditions!
