Zipp’s 101 XPLR Gravel Wheel Set: Engineered for Endless Adventure
Designed specifically for gravel cyclists seeking performance and resilience on demanding terrain, Zipp’s 101 XPLR Wheel Set redefines what it means to conquer rough roads and rugged trails. Whether you’re racing through technical sections or embarking on multi-day epics, these wheels deliver unmatched control and comfort thanks to Zipp’s proprietary MOTO Technology. This innovation combines a single-wall rim design with advanced vibration damping properties, ensuring smoother rides that minimize fatigue even during grueling adventures.
The 27mm internal rim width offers exceptional versatility—supporting wider tires at lower pressures while enhancing traction in loose corners and absorbing shocks on rocky paths. This not only reduces pinch flats but also lets you tackle uneven surfaces with confidence, maintaining speed without sacrificing comfort. Pairing this with the robust ZR1 hubset further elevates performance: its optimized seal system guards against debris and wear, while 66 engagement points provide instant acceleration and responsive handling—critical when you’re pushing through challenging conditions or sprinting for the finish line.
Built for endurance riders and adventure seekers alike, the 101 XPLR’s Black finish and Center-Lock Disc compatibility ensure style meets practicality for modern gravel bikes. With a 700c wheel size and Tubeless Ready design (via Presta valves), these wheels adapt seamlessly to diverse terrains and weather conditions, whether you’re navigating desert trails or muddy forest paths. Backed by Zipp’s Lifetime Warranty, they promise unwavering reliability for years of exploration.
