  • This week on Making You Faster our Mid South coverage continues with even more gravel racing tips from the Zipp pros. We catch up with Anna Yamauchi and Alex Howes to talk wheels and tires and we circle back with Nico Roche and Sarah Sturm to dive deeper into their early season gravel set ups. We even manage to get some face time at the start line with Bobby Wintle, the legendary event organizer behind The Mid South! If you’ve ever been curious about racing gravel, tune in and put The Mid South on your calendar for 2024!

    303NSW up front, but FC on the rear. Proof that the NSW hub is a fail. He didn't want to say it, but that's the reason.

    Genuinely pissed you cut out me telling people to pump up a 50mm tire to 50psi (legal disclaimer: Don't ever do that)

    Hope the rocks here are less destructive to rims than the ones found on the roads of UAE!

      No (Zipp) wheels were harmed in the shredding of this gravel race ✨

    Dude… fix the mic issue

      It’s a GoPro mic, it’s directional 🤷 Sometimes Chas is a little muffled when the camera is pointing at the athlete, but noted!

    Slicks for mud? You'd have zero traction. The whole reason you gain speed in mud is because you don't shed it xD

    • @zippspeed

      Absolutely. In a long distance gravel race, especially when you’re on a straight road for miles at a time, collecting mud only slows you down. Certainly in a muddy CX or XC race you need knobs for the technical riding those disciplines demand. The muddiest edition of this race was won on slicks 💯

      I also notice that people in CX races sometimes use narrow slicks for muddy days, I guess the theory is that the tire will cut thru the top layer of mud and dig in to the firmer ground below, rather than sliding around on top, collecting mud between the knobs and clogging up your situation
