Zipp’s Five Tips to Make You Faster at SBT GRVL

Zipp is the official wheel sponsor of SBT GRVL and the race-defining Cow Creek section. In partnership with Strava we’re giving away a set of 303 Firecrest wheels to the 303rd fastest competitor on the Cow Creek Strava Segment on race day.*

Zipp is all about Making You Faster, especially as you ride the “Champagne Gravel” of SBT GRVL. Below are five tips for getting the most out of your gravel experience.

ONE

Stop by the Zipp booth on race weekend to determine your optimal tire pressure and receive a free Zipp T-shirt (while supplies last!). Tire pressure is a critical component of speed, especially reducing vibration loss and rider fatigue on gravel. See also the Zipp Tire Pressure guide.

TWO

The Zipp 303 Firecrest is the go-to gravel wheel for our fastest pros. Setting up your Zipp hookless wheels doesn’t have to be complicated. This video shows you how.

THREE

Running tubeless greatly reduces your chance of a flat tire. But if you do experience a flat, in many cases you can simply plug it roadside.

FOUR

The Zipp Service Course SL-70 XPLR, designed for ergonomic all-roads efficiency, is the perfect bar for going fast on gravel.

FIVE

With Zipp, you can have confidence you’re riding the most advanced wheelsets backed by our lifetime warranty. Learn all about our Total System Efficiency (TSE) approach to Making You Faster in all conditions.

*Multiple riders with the same segment time will result in a raffle to determine the winner.
