The deep channel of the rim actually makes it easier to get tires on and off.
We're taking our first look at Zipp's new Firecrest line. We have both the 404 clinchers (pictured here), and the 808 clinchers mounted up and being ridden for review. But we couldn't rob you of some of the details before we get to our in-depth review of the wheels. So before laying down rim tape and pumping up the tires, we thought we'd take a look at the construction details, and examine everything we could before finally putting in the miles.
