SRAM is s\"zipp_only<\/a>et to grow in the Canadian market this fall, as Live to Play Sports expands the brand\u2019s offering with Zipp wheels and components<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Available mid-November, LTP Sports\u2019 specialty bicycle retailer partners across Canada will have broader access to Zipp\u2019s full range of high-performance carbon and alloy wheels, aero cockpits, bars, stems and seatposts. Accessory and service parts will also be available this fall.<\/p>\n

This move greatly expands LTP\u2019s offering of best-in-class triathlon and road products, says Martin Tammik, VP of aftermarket brands for LTP Sports. \u201cZipp is the world leader in aero wheels for triathlon and road, so we are very pleased to be able to offer their premium products, and support, to Canadian bicycle dealers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Known for its Firecrest\u00ae technology<\/a>, Zipp has long been a heavy hitter in the aerodynamic wheel segment. Established in 1988 in Indianapolis, IN, Zipp was born of the vision to create lightweight, stiff, and aerodynamic carbon wheels to excel on the track. More than 25 years later, Zipp wheels remain the speed weapon of choice in triathlon, with over 50 percent participants in the Ironman\u00ae World Championships in Kona depending on Zipp.<\/p>\n

\u201cZipp\u2019s culture of innovation has revolutionized what\u2019s possible with aero wheels,\u201d said Brian Gavette, SRAM Director of Sales and Marketing \u2013 Americas. \u201cZipp\u2019s purpose-built line of Firecrest wheels provides unmatched aerodynamic efficiency, cross-wind stability and durability. Zipp\u2019s drive to be the best is verified by the athletes who ride its wheels, from champions at Paris-Roubaix and Kona to cyclists and triathletes pushing their own limits. We\u2019re excited to partner with Live to Play Sports with its great relationships with independent bicycle retailers across Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n

Look for the complete range of Zipp carbon and alloy wheels, plus stems, bars, and seat posts, available at Live to Play Sports retail partners.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
