404s with the AL brake track
Flashpoint 60s
SRAM S60s

All the same wheelset.

Not real light. Not the most aero any more. Last a long time and you won't have to deal with carbon clinchers essploding in the mtns or changing brake pads every time you change wheels

Not the same wheel set as those (those were not the same wheel set as those). The old 404 with alu brake track was different in weight, rim profile (shape and depth) and hubs than the sram version and Flashpoint sets and this varies again from them. But similar ideology.

The aero shape is a hold over from more recent 404 (though not Firecrest). The Hub is different from any previous Zipp product. Much more economical build up including a hub that is heavier with a solid bearing choice and build.
