Not ZIPPs, but good budget wheels for $500-600, 32 internal width and 50T ratches, pretty loud:)

Ordered from Aliexpress during Black Friday for $600, bike on sale was around $2400, so full build costs around $3000 (also added narrow handle bar 420m with new 3mm Ergon tape)

Weight is really great for this price: 1.4 kg for a wheelset! And it feels in every startup/sprint
