The Zipp 454 NSW Tubeless Disc wheelset is the pinnacle of road racing performance, faster, lighter, and more stable in every condition. Its undulating 58mm Sawtooth™ rim, featuring Hyperfoil™ nodes and HexFin™ dimples, slices through the wind with class-leading aero efficiency. A wider hookless rim optimises tubeless tyres for lower pressures, reduced rolling resistance, and smoother rides. Featuring Total System Efficiency™ to combat wind, gravity, and vibration losses, and anchored by the re-engineered Cognition V2 Hubset for lightning-fast engagement, the 454 NSW delivers maximum speed with minimum wasted energy.

Cognition Hubset

At the heart of the 454 NSW is the re-engineered Cognition V2 Hubset, featuring the advanced Axial Clutch V2™ mechanism. Designed for lightning-fast engagement, reduced friction, and enhanced durability, it delivers a smoother, more efficient ride—whether you’re putting down power or freewheeling at speed.

Sawtooth Rim

The Sawtooth™ rim profile, engineered with Hyperfoil™ nodes and HexFin™ ABLC dimples, delivers exceptional aerodynamic efficiency and unmatched crosswind stability with its dynamic 53/58mm depth.
