Christie Posted September 9, 2011 Share Perhaps sales were poor? Looked like nice cranks imo, wonder if they were too expensive, or if it was the non-standard chainrings that put people off. Check it out on their website: "Please note Zipp has discontinued this item to focus on our core product lines of wheels, bars, stems and seatposts. We will continue to warranty and support any Zipp cranks." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

javadude Posted September 9, 2011 Share I saw that too. I used those cranks on my imaginary dream bike, so its a pity I wont get a chance to buy them for real one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eugene Posted September 10, 2011 Share At R7 000 odd, I'm not surprised nobody bought them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Break Posted September 10, 2011 Share R10000 and your nephew got given one of them in the USA. I can vouch though, they are one hell of a crankset and from powertap data there is about a 50W increase in peak sprinting power between the Vuma and the DA cranks. Put the Zipp SL HB and Zipp Stem on and you can add another 90W. Stiffness is incredible for the weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
