Miami 70.3 ( sram vs zipp)

Triathlon Forum
1

Hello, I am new into tri, and I am going to dome first t70.3 Miami half ironman this coming october 30th.

I am borrowing either a set of Sram S60 front/S80 back or a set of Zipp 404 max. I am just not sure with set would be the best since it would be the first time for me using these type of wheels.

I do accept any other type of tips,

Thank you,

it is almost the exact same wheel. the sram rim is made by zipp.

which one has the best tires on em?

The bike course is flat so go S60/S80. Sram wheels are a bit heavier than Zipp’s but you shouldn’t mind unless you were riding a hilly course.
