ZIPP 454 NSW Carbon Tubeless Disc Rear Wheel – 12×142 • 11-Speed (Shimano/SRAM)
The Zipp 454 NSW Carbon Tubeless Disc Rear Wheel is a high-performance road cycling upgrade designed to elevate speed, efficiency, and ride quality on modern disc brake bikes. Featuring a hookless carbon tubeless-only rim, this rear wheel optimizes rolling resistance, aerodynamics, and tyre stability at lower pressures.
Built with Zipp’s Cognition V2 / ZR1 SL hub technology, the wheel provides quick freehub engagement, low friction, and reliable durability for training, racing, and long rides. The centre-lock disc brake interface ensures secure rotor mounting, while compatibility with 11-speed Shimano and SRAM drivetrains makes it easy to integrate into most road bike setups.
Aerodynamic rim shaping with Sawtooth™ and Hyperfoil™ profiles plus ABLC HexFin™ dimples reduces drag and improves crosswind stability — ideal for riders targeting speed and handling performance.
