Looking at the rim brake Zipp wheels. Came to wonder how these new (again) hubs are since there's been alot of discussion of Zipp hubs in the past.
For you people that have these, what are your experiences?
Any issues or experience of drag?
Zipp ZR1 hub, good/ bad or?

Can't complain at all after a good 2500km.
The Freehub could be a little louder for my taste

not a big fan. my 303fc have been quite draggy out of the box (also around 2500km now). the rest of the package is good though.
Some say pour 10ml water out of your bottle to save that last bit of the weight. Sorry, i go one step further, i tend to the rider off my bikes. 
n+1...14 last time i checked, but i lost count

I have a set of 303FC's. I am not finding them draggy but I am finding that the maintenance interval for the ZR1 hub is quite short in wet weather. And I found the bits quite finicky to service at home at my kitchen table. The good news is that my LBS and Zipp bailed me out when my self-service attempt failed.wheelsONfire wrote: ↑Thu Sep 09, 2021 7:49 pmLooking at the rim brake Zipp wheels.
