Safety Instructions

ROAD WHEELS

Safety Instructions

You must read and understand the Safety Instructions document included with your product before proceeding with the installation. Improperly installed components are extremely dangerous and could result in severe and/or fatal injuries. If you have any questions about the installation of these components, consult a qualified bicycle mechanic. This document is also available on www.sram.com.

1. Follow the safety instructions listed here. Any failure to follow these safety instructions could cause you to crash while riding your bicycle, which could result in serious and/or fatal injuries.

2. Have your wheels maintained by a qualified bicycle mechanic.

3. Before riding your bicycle confirm you are using the correctly sized wheels for your fork and bicycle. Confirm the wheels are properly installed and secured to the bicycle, and are used with compatible components. Your wheels are designed to secure to the bike using a quick release or thru axle. Be sure you understand which axle your bike has and how to properly operate it.

4. Ensure that your axle, dropouts, and thru axle or quick release mechanisms are clean and free of dirt or debris.

5. Apply the correct techniques when installing your wheels. Make sure four or more threads are engaged in the quick release adjusting nut when it is closed.

6. Do not modify Zipp wheels in any way.

7. Do not use Zipp wheels on any tandem bicycle.

8. Do not exceed the lower of the rim or tire maximum pressure rating. Find the rim pressure rating on the rim near the valve hole.

9. Zipp wheels do not come with the reflectors required by federal law for new bicycles, 16 CFR §1512.16. Additional requirements for reflectors and lighting may exist and vary by location. Your dealer should install proper reflectors and lighting systems to meet all applicable federal, state, and local requirements. Always use front and rear lights in addition to reflectors if riding at night or in reduced visibility.

10. Use only the brake pads included with your wheels or Zipp approved pads for your specific rims. For a list of Zipp approved pads, refer to www.sram.com\service. Use of improper or contaminated brake pads, or non-approved pads including non-Zipp carbon specific pads, will lead to excessively high braking temperatures which can cause premature rim wear and/or failure which can lead to serious injury and/or death. Cork compound brake pads are for use in dry conditions only.

11. Do not use ceramic specific pads on non-ceramic coated rims.

12. Do not re-use any brake pads on carbon rims that have been previously used on aluminum rims as abrasive material may be embedded in the pad.

13. For Aluminum rims: Check the rim wear indicator(s) located on each side of the rim before every ride. If any wear indicator is completely worn or missing, immediately discontinue use of the wheel. The wear indicator represents the minimum rim thickness allowable for safe operation of the wheel. Riding the wheel with less than the minimum allowable rim thickness can lead to structural failure of the rim and/or wheel.

14. Do not attempt to use any tubeless products (excluding tubular tires) with tube-type clincher or tubular wheels.

COIN BATTERIES

Warning

INGESTION HAZARD

This product contains a button cell or coin battery.

DEATH or serious injury can occur if ingested.

A swallowed button cell or coin battery can cause INTERNAL CHEMICAL BURNS in as little as TWO HOURS.

KEEP new and used batteries OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION if a battery is suspected to be swallowed or inserted inside any part of the body.

NO OBVIOUS SYMPTOMS

Unfortunately, it is not obvious when a button or coin battery is stuck in a child's esophagus. There are no specific symptoms associated with this.

The child might:

Cough, gag or drool a lot
Appear to have an upset stomach or a virus
Be sick
Point to their throat or stomach
Have pain in their abdomen, chest, or throat
Be tired or lethargic
Be quieter or more clingy than usual or otherwise “not themselves”
Lose their appetite or have a reduced appetite, not want to eat solid food, or be unable to eat solid food

These sorts of symptoms vary or fluctuate, with the pain increasing and then subsiding. A specific symptom to button and coin battery ingestion is vomiting fresh (bright red) blood. If the child does this seek immediate medical help. The lack of clear symptoms is why it is important to be vigilant with “flat” or spare button or coin batteries in the home and the products that contain them.

BATTERY AND BATTERY CHARGER

Safety Instructions

Lithium ion batteries are hazardous. Any failure to follow these safety instructions could damage the battery or charger which could cause fire, chemical burns, electrolyte leaks, and/or could lead to serious and/or fatal injuries. If the battery explodes, immediately call the fire department, cautiously remove any other batteries if possible, evacuate all persons from immediate area of fire, and use cold water to put out the fire.

Safety Instructions

1. Use only the SRAM-supplied charger and cords. Use of other chargers and cords may cause the battery to overheat, catch fire, and/or explode. Do not force discharge, recharge, disassemble, heat above (manufacturer's specified temperature rating) or incinerate. Doing so may result in injury due to venting, leakage or explosion resulting in chemical burns.

2. Replace rechargeable batteries with genuine SRAM rechargeable batteries only. Non-rechargeable batteries are not to be recharged.

3. Replace batteries only with the type described in the user manual. Ensure the batteries are installed correctly according to polarity (+ and -). Do not mix old and new batteries, different brands or types of batteries, such as alkaline, carbon-zinc, or rechargeable batteries.

Quick Release Axles

Warning

Use only Zipp disc brake-specific quick release axles with bicycles equipped with disc brakes. Failure to do so may result in detachment of the wheel which can lead to a crash and serious injury and/or death to the rider.

Zipp Hub	Axle Length Front (A)	Dropout Width Front (B)		OLD	Axle Length Rear (A)	Dropout Width Rear (B)
Rim Brake	146 mm	112 mm		130 mm	178 mm	144 mm
Disc Brake	149 mm	115 mm		135 mm	185.5 mm	151.5 mm

Warning

Quick release lever tension must be sufficient to properly seat and secure the wheel to the bicycle. If, after peforming the installation instructions that follow, the quick release lever is very difficult to close or excessive friction is felt when closing the lever, check the cam bushing and lever for damage. Any damage can result in insufficient quick release lever tension. Insufficient lever tension can cause the wheel to not seat or secure properly and make the wheel unsafe to ride; replace the quick release lever. Any wheel that is not properly seated or secured can disengage from the bicycle, which can lead to a crash and serious injury and/or death to the rider.

Axle Conversion Caps

For complete Zipp hub end cap compatibility please refer to the Zipp End Cap Compatibility Chart at www.sram.com/service.

1. Remove the axle end caps with a non-marring tool, such as pliers with plastic jaws or a bench vise with aluminum soft jaws.

Notice

The use of metal tools can damage the end cap surface finish.

2. Install the end caps by pressing them onto each end of the axle by hand.

Cognition hubs: Apply Zipp Cognition or SRAM Butter grease to the inside of each end cap before installation.

ZR1 hubs: Apply Klüber Staburags NBU30 grease to the face of each bearing, and the sides and ends of the axles before installation.

Disc Brake Wheels

Rim Brake Wheels

Rim Brake Considerations

Use only the brake pads included with your wheels, or Zipp approved brake pads for your specific rims. For a list of Zipp approved brake pads, consult www.sram.com/en/service/articles/zipp-approved-pads.

Notice

Use of colored brake pads can cause discoloration of the rim's braking surface, which is not covered under Warranty.

Only use carbon-compatible brake pads with carbon rims, and aluminum-compatible brake pads with aluminum rims.

Warning

Use of improper or contaminated brake pads, or non-approved pads including non-Zipp carbon specific pads, will lead to excessively high braking temperatures which can cause premature rim wear and/or failure which can lead to serious injury and/or death.

Cork compound brake pads are for use in dry conditions only and will experience reduced performance in wet conditions which can lead to crash or injury.

Inspect rim brake pads for wear every month.

When the grooves on your brake pads disappear, they are worn and need to be replaced with new brake pads.

Consult your rim brake caliper manufacturer's instructions for brake pad replacement.

Carbon Fiber Rims

Indications of Carbon Fiber Brake Track Wear

Warning

Inspect the rim brake track for wear before each ride. Do not use a carbon fiber rim that has a worn brake track. A worn brake track can cause the rim to fail which can lead to a crash and serious injury and/or death to the rider. If the outer woven carbon layer (A) of the rim brake track is worn down to expose parallel fibers (B), do not ride the wheel. Consult a Zipp retailer for further inspection.

Do not expose Zipp wheels or rims to hot vehicle exhaust or allow the rims to contact any vehicle exhaust components.

Cassette Driver Spacer

Cassette Driver Spacer Installation

Zipp Road wheels are available with splined and XDR driver bodies, and are compatible with both road and MTB cassettes. Install the included 1.85 mm cassette spacer, if necessary, as indicated prior to the installation of the cassette. Refer to the XD, XDR, and Splined Cassettes User Manual for more information.

Wheel Installation

Front Wheel - Quick Release Axle

1. If using rim brakes, turn the brake quick release to the open position.

2. Install the front wheel into the dropouts. If your wheel and/or front tire has directional arrows, make sure the tire rotates in the proper direction.

3. Align the lever with the curved surface of the cam bushing.

Warning

Crash Hazard

Misalignment of the lever and cam bushing can cause damage to the parts and can result in insuffucient lever tension while the lever is closed. A damaged cam bushing or lever may require higher lever closing force which may result in insufficient wheel retention. Do not deviate from the installation procedure to reduce force required to close the lever as this will result in insufficient wheel retention.

4. Insert the quick release axle through the non-drive side of the hub. With the lever in line with the axle, push and hold the lever cam against the non-drive side dropout.

5. Thread the adjusting nut onto the axle by hand until it contacts the drive side dropout and the inside of the dropout contacts the hub. The adjusting nut must engage at least four threads on the axle.

6. Close the lever toward the rear of the bicycle, parallel to the ground.

7. To increase lever tension, open the lever and turn the adjusting nut clockwise by hand.

8. Close the lever to re-check lever tension. Lever tension is sufficient when the lever cannot be rotated while in the closed position. If the lever can be rotated while in the closed position, this is an indication that lever tension is insufficient and must be increased.

9. If using a wheel that is quipped with rim brakes, turn the brake quick release to the closed position.

10. The front wheel must be centered between the fork dropouts. If the wheel is not centered, open the quick release and make sure the wheel axle is fully seated in the fork.

11. Close the quick release.

12. If using a wheel that is quipped with rim brakes, center the brake pads so there is an equal distance between the pads and the rim. Inspect brake pad alignment and centering by closing and opening the pads with the brake lever. If the brake pads are not centered to the wheel, see your brake manufacturer's instructions. If the wheel fails to adequately center in the fork, you should consult your Zipp dealer or professional bicycle mechanic.

13. If using a wheel that is equipped with disc brakes, check that the rotor is centered in the caliper. If the rotor is not centered, consult your brake manufacturer's instructions.

Front Wheel - Thru Axle

1. Install the front wheel into the dropouts. If your wheel and/or front tire has directional arrows, make sure the tire rotates in the proper direction.

2. Slide the thru axle through the drop out and hub until it contacts the threads of the opposite side drop out.

3. Tighten the thru axle to the torque specified by the axle manufacturer.

4. If using a wheel that is equipped with disc brakes, check that the rotor is centered in the caliper. If the rotor is not centered, consult your brake manufacturer's instructions.

Rear Wheel - Quick Release Axle

1. If using a bike that is equipped with rim brakes, turn the brake quick release to the open position.

2. Pull back and down on the rear derailleur and hold it in place as you install the wheel.

3. Install the wheel into the dropouts so that the chain wraps around the smallest cog of the cassette.

4. Make sure the wheel is fully seated into the dropouts.

5. If using a wheel that is equipped with a quick release axle, align the lever with the curved surface of the cam bushing.

Warning

Crash Hazard

6. Insert the quick release axle through the non-drive side of the hub. With the lever in line with the axle, push and hold the lever cam against the non-drive side dropout.

7. Thread the adjusting nut onto the axle by hand until it contacts the drive side dropout and the inside of the dropout contacts the hub.

The adjusting nut must engage at least four threads on the axle.

8. Close the lever forward between the seat stay and chain stay.

If the lever can be rotated while in the closed position, this is an indication that lever tension is insufficient and must be increased.

9. To increase lever tension, open the lever and turn the adjusting nut clockwise by hand.

10. Close the lever to re-check lever tension. Lever tension is sufficient when the lever cannot be rotated while in the closed position.

11. If you are using a bike that is equipped with rim brakes, turn the brake quick release to the closed position.

12. The rear wheel must be centered between the frame dropouts. If the wheel is not centered, open the quick release and make sure the wheel axle is fully seated in the frame.

13. Close the quick release.

14. Center the brake pads so there is an equal distance between the pads and the rim. Inspect brake pad alignment and centering by closing and opening the pads with the brake lever. If the brake pads are not centered to the wheel, see your brake manufacturer's instructions. If the wheel fails to adequately center in the frame, you should consult your Zipp dealer or professional bicycle mechanic.

15. If using a wheel that is equipped with disc brakes, check that the rotor is centered in the caliper. If the rotor is not centered, consult your brake manufacturer's instructions.

Rear Wheel - Thru Axle

1. Pull back and down on the rear derailleur and hold it in place as you install the wheel.

2. Install the wheel into the dropouts so that the chain wraps around the smallest cog of the cassette.

3. Make sure the wheel is fully seated into the dropouts.

4. Slide the thru axle through the drop out and hub until it contacts the threads of the opposite side drop out.
