Unfortunately this is the wrong question to ask. The real comparison is not Zipp vs Hed, but Flashpoint vs. Hed. The FP80 wheel matches the Hed in Aero performance, weight, and cost, while having less side force for better handling, but more importantly is a fully structural carbon/aluminum co-molded rim where the Hed is a carbon fairing on a traditional aluminum rim. Also, the FP80 and Hed wheels both use hubs manufactured in Asia and bearings from Asia, while the zipp hub is considerably higher tolerance, lighter weight, manufactured entirely in the USA of US materials and uses Swiss bearings of higher precision than most ceramic bearings, and uses custom spokes from Sapim in Belgium. Ultimately the Flashpoint brand lines up directly against the Hed Stinger line as they are structural carbon rims like the FP's and not just fairings as seen in the Jet line... so when it comes to comparisons you guys really need to move the goal posts here... if you are considering price in the equation, then you need to talk in FP terms and you will see that the FP series wheels offer incredible value at that pricepoint.
