Zipp’s 101 XPLR is its first purpose-built rim for gravel. Featuring MOTO Technology, this wheelset provides gravel cyclists with increased control and durability over harsh terrain, along with a smooth ride quality designed to help reduce fatigue for a more comfortable ride.
The 101 XPLR, short for explore, is designed for riders seeking adventure beyond the norm. It is suited to primitive roads, especially when paired with large tubeless tires at lower tire pressures. This rim is ideal for gravel racing, adventure, or long days in the saddle.
Based on Zipp’s MOTO Technology, the 101 XPLR features a single-wall rim construction that provides compliance and vibration damping. This can help reduce fatigue, allowing you to ride longer and faster. Quarq’s TyreWiz is also available as an add-on option for the 101 XPLR to help dial in tire pressure for an even more compliant ride.
