Zero Chrono has the best aerodynamics for all the wind directions that can strike a wheel on the road. Considerable technology, development and quality control goes into achieving such seemingly effortless aerodynamics.
ZeroChrono is aimed at riders trying to beat their trial times. The product is designed for time trials and Ironman. Without a doubt, the choice to make for being the fastest rider.
The front wheel, a 5 spokes wheel offers smooth wind penetration, together with a utra-quick lenticular rear wheel, offers an ideal combination to fight against the clock. For Hawaii Ironman, for instance, we have tested and recommend the 5 spokes ZeroChrono for both wheels. Even for Ironman’s with a difficult terrain and conditions, we recommend the 5 spokes ZeroChrono, specially if the bike is your preferred leg.
The lenticular wheel is good in flat and windless conditions, where the rider reaches high speeds.
As with our ZeroCx range, the wheels have a 3k carbon clincher spec for the forces applied to this type of wheel. The best choice for tubular wheels is, however, the UD finish.
ZeroChrono stands for high performance and efficiency, the high wind penetration and the ability to maintain bike speeds make for very fast riding.
ZeroCx hub
Central to our entire range of ZeroCx wheels is our custom spec hub. Built out of high resistance aluminium it offers a high quality, highly solid structure. The sealing system is exclusive and easy to maintain, together with high spec ceramic bearings provide extremely reliable and smooth riding. Our development program is continually improving the smoothness of our wheel ride, reliability and safety.
The front hub has a weight of 65g, together with a sober and elegant design. The rear hub has a weight of 215g, a robust hub casing for greater rigidity. Both hubs weigh in at just 275g.
Both our hubs have been subject to the full resistance and endurance quality assurance tests, and have strength and reliability specifications way beyond the current standard requirements.
The ZeroCx skewers match the high performance and quality standards of the hubs. Made of titanium they weigh just 45g (the pair).
ZeroCx Assembly
Wheel assembly is a manual process conducted at our factory in northern Spain. Each is hand checked and put through our internal QA process, before being signed off by the engineer.
Carbon
ZeroCx wheel rims are constructed with the most advanced carbon material on the market, achieving amongst the highest lightness, rigidity and safety levels in the market.
Our choice of carbon components and suppliers have 20 years of R&D from aeronautics and aviation sectors, and achieve the highest levels of Quality Standards. ZeroCx has supplied and partnered with prestigious international brands from several sectors.
The range of wheels have been tested and fine tuned over thousands of miles, and different types of road. The cumulative R&D has allowed us to design the highest specification wheels for the different training, terrain and race needs of professional and advanced amateur cyclists.
In all our products we have adapted the carbon finish to the wheel type. The UD carbon is lightweight and flexible, and the wheels absorb shocks and vibration well. 3K carbon has more substance, providing a more solid and rigid structure than other types of carbon. Each wheel in our ZeroCx range is designed with the most suitable type of carbon type.
Spoke and spoke nipple
The spoke holes in the rim are drilled at the exact angle required by its position on the wheel hub. The spokes, spoke nipples are sourced from the highest specification manufactures in the market. The wire gauge on the spokes has been selected and tested to provide high strength, aerodynamic profile, high fatigue resistance while adding a minimum of weight on the wheel .
The spokes selected are stainless steel and withstand tension of up-to 1600N/mm². The inox 18/8 grade stainless steel and the polyax aluminium on the spoke nipples provide good shock absorbing properties together with durability. The central length of the spokes are flattened to lower wind resistance at high wheel speeds.
