A few weeks back the women of Canyon//SRAM racing Speedmax CF SLX bikes to a Team Time Trial World Championship. The always colorful team was decked out in even more cyan, magenta, yellow & white than normal thanks to a special 30th anniversary edition of Zipp’s Super 9 disc wheels. For a limited time, now you tool can get the special edition CMYK & White carbon clinchers too.

Calling back to the late 80s color scheme offered on the original Zipp Disc wheel, the much more modern, light & aero Super-9 recreates the same look with an eye towards being just as visible. No hiding out on the course when you are rocking one of these super bright rear wheels in your next race against the clock!

The same wheels have been ridden to many individual & team time trail victories, plus their fair share of triathlons.

They feature a light but stiff carbon over foam core construction, with a wide aero profile and relatively flat dimpled sides, plus a tapered brake track that smooths the transition to the tire.

The $2875/2429€ rim brake disc rear wheels weigh 1155g and are available in white, yellow, magenta, blue & a stealth printed NSW black to match your NSW front wheel. They use the latest ABLC dimple patter, the 188 hubs and have a 27.5mm max rim width, 17.25mm internal.

The $2875/2429€ disc brake disc rear wheels weigh 1175g, but are only available in the stealth NSW black, unfortunately no bright colors for some reason. The disc disc wheel has the same rim shape (not tubeless-ready) and a centerlock rotor interface on the 177DD hub.

All of the new disc wheels, in all colors, should be available through regular Zipp retail channels this month, including on Zipp.com to US riders. And if you want to personalize your super expensive rear wheel (why not?) Zipp will also print your name, nickname or some motivational message up to 35 characters long on the special edition wheels too if you order through their website.

What about the brake track? Will Zipp ever make a disc with the “Showstopper” brake track?
