The Guys at Fusion said I would notice the difference racing with ZIPP 808’s and how right they were!
In crits, cornering is smoother, acceleration better and top speed can be held longer. My average speed (on the Nundah track) is up about 2kph.
Adding a Zipp disc to the Zipp 808 on my Look T/T bike has also given a remarkable improvement over my previous wheels.
How do I know?
Because I use a Garmin Edge 705 to plot my riding and can compare all my performances in racing and training.
It is a great tool and couples with my Cycleops power hub.
Each day I download the ride data and compare speed, heart rate, cadence and power output with previous rides and can see on the map where I have been as well as the full ride profile.(plus lots of other stuff)
The best bit is that the Fusion Boy’s showed me how to best use all this gear and they keep my bikes in top shape as well.
