Zipp Product Manager Nathan Schickel discusses the design and benefits of the Service Course 70 XPLR and lighter Service Course SL 70 XPLR handlebars.

We’re headed to the mountains of British Columbia for this special edition of ZippCast. Zipp wheel product manager Bastien Donzé was at Crankworx Whistler, where he sat down with Enduro World Series star Adrien Dailly (Da-lee) and his mechanic, Craig Miller, to talk about the development and testing of 3ZERO MOTO.

Today is all about a roadie going gravel. Zipp wheel category manager Jason Fowler, a dedicated roadie who now loves gravel, gives tips on equipment choices and mental mindset for conquering your next (or your first) off-pavement road adventure.

Zipp advanced development engineer David Morse reveals our approach for aero testing. How we use the wind tunnel, computer simulations, and real-world riding to evaluate the aero efficiency and stability of our wheels. He also gives tips on wheel selection and how to reduce your aero drag on the bike.

We also debut our new Ask ZippCast segment where we answer your questions.

We’re talking dream bikes. What’s your dream bike and why? SRAM super tech Danie Lategan recently built a dream bike for filmmaker Gee (pronounced “G”) Milner, a Scott Addict with Zipp NSW and SRAM RED eTap AXS. We talk through each decisions of how to build up this bike and what it can mean for you in building the bike of your dreams.

If you own Zipp wheels, this is a podcast for you. Zipp’s new Trade In/Speed Up program is a great way for current Zipp owners to upgrade to the latest models of Zipp Speed. Get the details from Zipp’s Brett Stewart in this new Zippcast.

ZippCast goes back to school! We recently had the pleasure of hosting middle school science teachers Andy Simon and Sean McVey from Clay Middle School in Carmel, Ind. These guys love cycling and, after years of persistent applications, were awarded a grant to look at the role of physics in bike racing. They have an Instagram account, @2touringteachers, followed by hundreds of kids and are planning cycling-related lessons for the next school year. They’re headed to this year’s Tour de France as a capstone of their project. We think you’ll love their enthusiasm for the Tour, science and teaching kids about cycling.

CANYON//SRAM Racing is on the leading edge of professional road teams adopting tubeless tires for competition. Team mechanic Arne Kenzler tells us about the transition and gives tips for roadies thinking about going tubeless.

Road bike technology is changing faster than a Tour de France field sprint. Jason Phillips, SRAM (and Zipp’s) tech liaison to the pros, gives the inside scoop of how pros are adopting new technology such at disc brakes and tubeless tires as well as their overall approach to making their machines as fast as possible.

Brooklyn bike shop owner Shawn Wolf collects vintage Zipp like it's fine art. The Coors Light cycling team? He loves them, too. In fact, Shawn is obsessed with the neon-colored crazy innovations of 1990s cycling. We tie the past in with the present in this episode of ZippCast.
