Check out this pic. It sure looks like a zipp hub with the carbon caps, and a 303 sized rim....:

Yes it is.

I'm surprised Cyclingnews hasn't figured it out yet as this was discussed elsewhere 2 weeks ago.

Check out the blog article on Zipp vs ADA linked from Temple's website.

Weird to see him riding a wheel that most of the forum members here claim are practically worthless compared to a carbone or ada....

This topic regarding Jan and his tour wheels has been discussed on weightweenies awhile back. If I recall, one of the European Zipp reps on the site reported that Jan approached him and bought several Zipp wheelsets in the weeks preceeding the start of the tour.

I've been racing my 303s with telecom pink comp 22s the last couple of weeks and they rock. Good enough for Jan...

Ullrich supposedly used wheels built by Tune (Zipp 303 rims with Tune hubs and Sapim CX-Ray spokes) ...
