• I'm biased but I think the new AXS Red is pretty lovely.

    Is the plan for the new super low pressure Zipp 303s? If so- you'll need 30c tyres, which fit mine fine.

  • Its the chainrings that I'm not sure if I like. What AXS kit are you running, red cranks and force mechs? Which cassette?

    my 303's are the nsw models, not the latest 2020 or 2021 which I think are the ones with mega low pressures?
    To be honest I've never really gave tire pressure too much though on my road bike. Not so long ago I ran nothing but 23c at 100psi.
    More recently I started riding with 80psi on 28c tires.

    I've got 28c Corsa's, the tan walls pictured but they aren't tubeless compatible. I've also just got 30c tubeless corsa's cheap from triuk that I'll switch over to and set up tubeless onces the 28c's are done.

    I just cant imagine being able to run much less than 80psi. I'm a heavier rider but hardly a fat bastard at 92kg and 1.89m. Definitely gained a wee bit of furlough fat, fighting weight is normally around 88kg
    Sram recommend 58/60psi for my weight on the new rims!?

    Edit - just read an old sram press release, its confusing... but my rims are the 2018/19 303 nsw 21mm internal width. Seems its the 25mm internal width rims that are supposed to be run super low

  • My tarmac sl6 is force axs hrd and the new 25mm zipps. I run 58/56 in my 30s pro ones and its bonkers good.

    Its now as fast as my 'fast bike' which is the cannondale with red chainset and force axs rim brakes.

    It is also very, very comfy.
    I love it.
    But feel a bit dirty as its not a dale and has compact geo.
    Both firsts for me.

    Need to change bars and then I'm done.
