Thanks to the hookless interior (no internal rim flange to hold the tyre) they achieve a completely straight transition between the rim and the tyre, which offers impeccable aerodynamics, lighter weight and more durability.

The Sawtooth design, which we've seen before from Zipp, optimises aerodynamic efficiency and stability in crosswinds. And structurally it makes it stronger and lighter. All of this translates into faster corner exit speeds regardless of terrain and acceleration.

The Zipp Total System Efficiency takes on its full meaning in the 353 NSW. This concept approaches wheel improvements from the four fronts that influence wheel performance: wind resistance, gravity, rolling resistance, and vibration losses.

The internal width of this wheelset is 25mm, and has been designed to fit wider tubeless tires at reduced air pressure for a more efficient ride.

At the centre of the 353 NSW is the Cognition V2 Hubset, re-engineered with an updated Axial Clutch V2 mechanism that engages faster, with less friction and has greater durability.

The weight of the Zipp 353 NSW is 580g for the front wheel and 675g for the rear wheel. They are priced at 1800€ and 2000€ for front and rear respectively. They are available for XDR or SRAM/Shimano and the Campagnolo driver body is sold separately.
