3ZERO MOTO 29in Carbon Boost Wheel offers moto-inspired control and smooth traction
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I’ve been riding the 3ZERO MOTO wheels for months and can feel the difference in cornering and compliance. The single-wall carbon design absorbs chatter instead of pinging off rocks, and the ZM2 hubs engage instantly when it’s time to power out of a corner. They’re confidence-boosting and surprisingly comfortable for carbon wheels."
Inspired by the agility and traction of motocross performance, the Zipp 3ZERO MOTO 29in Carbon Boost Wheel brings a new level of compliance and control to aggressive trail and enduro riding. The single-wall carbon construction flexes laterally to stay parallel to the terrain, enhancing grip and smoothness through technical corners and rock gardens.
At the core, the precision-engineered German ZM2 hub delivers lightning-fast engagement with 12 pawls and 132 points of contact, ensuring instant power transfer when accelerating out of turns or navigating climbs. The wheel’s wide 30mm internal width supports lower tire pressures, providing added traction and fewer pinch flats without sacrificing speed or efficiency. Whether tackling a backcountry descent or a rugged enduro stage, the 3ZERO MOTO delivers a stable, responsive ride that inspires confidence and control on every line.

Excellent Full Carbon 29er Wheelset
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
- Size Bought:
- 29er
The Zipp 3Zero Moto wheels are an outstanding 29er Carbon Wheelset. The Zipp's are a bit heavier (~1900g) than other full carbon 29er wheels, but their trail manners and compliance is noticeable. In addition, the price through Backcountry is hands down the best around.

Magical

These wheels do exactly what they say they do. They are not light, they don't spin up fast like a lot of carbon wheels. I rode the first iteration of these wheels when they came out 6 years ago. I loved the wheels but hated the original hubs, they were quite loud but had slow engagement. This updated version is plenty quick and quieter. I love the way the wheel soaks up impacts and doesn't deflect like traditional wheels. I love the way the rim flexes and drives the tire into the ground more effectively. I love that it feels like I am running 2-3 psi less in my tires, but without the squirm of the lower pressure. I have ridden a lot of high end carbon wheels from a lot of different brands and these were the first to really make a big difference in the way I wanted. If you blow up berms and want the stiffest wheel you can find, these are not for you. If you carve berms, and want more traction in off camber turns, with a noticeably more compliant ride (phenomenal on hard tails) then you want these wheels.

Had to replace the stock rim tape
I've had these wheels for 8 months. I go biking at least every weekend. They've held up pretty good but recently I had to remove my rear wheel and after I did, it went flat. Tried filling it up again but noticed sealant coming out of the spokes. The stock rim tape had failed. Not a big deal but I expect better for the price that I paid for.
Do you have a question about this product?

Do these wheels come with the Zipp Lifetime warranty? Also, is there any way to see pictures of each color/ can I buy aftermarket stickers to make both rims match in color? Thanks!
