FS: Zipp Firecrest 303 tubulars, not 100 miles on them.

For sale are my Zipp 303 Firecrest tubular wheels.

I bought these new from Probikekit about 3-4 years ago. They are just like new and have covered maybe 100 miles.

I used them for a handful of mountain TTs and hill climbs and nothing else, but my time for tubulars is over.

These wheels have not even been out on our piss-poor British roads, they have only ever been used on the smooth tarmac of the Alps and Dolomites.

Their condition is just stunning and just by looking at them you can see how little use they have had.

I can name every time they have been used and here is the list,

1. Hill climb on Mont Laurent Jalabert. Ascent and descent.
   
2. Mont Ventoux TT. Ascent only.
   
3. Mortirolo hill climb. Ascent and descent.
   
4. Monte Zoncolan hill climb. Ascent only.
   
5. Grossglockner TT. Ascent only.
   
6. Kitzbuheler Horn TT. Ascent and descent.
   
   

They are Shimano 10-speed but luckily I have a customer that are precision engineers and they milled off 1.2mm from the base of the freehub so that you can just squeeze an 11-speed cassette on - which is what I have always run them with.

I want £650 for the pair, you will not be disappointed, these wheels are crazy light, have awesome acceleration and are really just like new.

Obviously they have only been used with Zipp cork pads, just look at the brake surface, it is unmarked.
Standard Zipp skewers are not pictured but are included and both tubs are included (and are like new).

I would not really like to post, much nicer to meet up so you can inspect them, I'm in Kent.

Is the front hub one of those subject to the recall, and if so has the recall been done?

I have no idea it is subject to a recall, I'll do a bit of research.

Bloody hell, I reckon it is an affected hub. Bit of a poor show. Have contacted SRAM and Probikekit to see what needs to happen. Will update as and when.
Thanks 'Dammit', I had no idea.

Bad luck, although it seems with Zipp that the question"Is the hub subject to a recall?" is almost always answered with "yes".

A quick update to save me replying to those people who have messaged me.

Wheel is going off to Portugal for a new hub, takes six weeks !

Such is life.

dibs when it gets back, shoot me a PM
