I agree the Zipp's response was emphatical. They don't back their statement with any technical details. How they performed the tests and what they tested. I find it trully disrespectful. Saying there are many riders in the past several years riding such combination is like saying there are so many smokers who didn't die from lung cancer, therefore we consider it safe. This is what's happening when the marketing and finance departments lead the technical innovations.

We have to remember that a 28c tire today is not the same as a 28c tire from just several years ago. Some tire manufacturers have narrowed their sizes (*cough*Continental*cough*) - as rims got wider their old sizing was causing tires that measured much wider than advertised, in addition to accommodating newer 30/32c options and correcting their market range. The new ETRTO standards feel more like a correction this this phenomenon of tire manufacturers downsizing. What the industry actually needs is a better standardization of the way road bike tires are measured so that a 28c from manufacturer XYZ is the same width as a 28c from manufacturer ABC on the same rim.

Bike tires cannot be like that.

It might help that I was using ENVE’s own 29mm tire. I never plan use it with a smaller tire anyway.

They roll super smooth, they are very fast through the turns, and they hold 90 psi for like a whole week before losing some pressure. I love the wheels and tires.

Only blowoff I’ve had is on a hooked rim. Been racing on Enve hookless for the past 6 months with zero issues (80kg cat 2). The best rider/team in the world are currently on hookless, and not because of sponsorship money (Pogacar- UAE). The reason you’re hearing more about hookless blowoffs is because firstly, people aren’t running them at the right pressure (if someone pumped a clincher up to 200psi and it blew off, you wouldn’t think it’s the fault of the system) Secondly, because hookless is such a talking point right now, you’re hearing more about the stories of hookless wheels blowing off and people attributing the blowoffs to hookless. There’s tons of cases of hooked rims blowing off, pinched tubes exploding, etc. But most people aren’t going to report that back to you because they have a normal wheel set and will just attribute it to a pinched tube or sudden flat.

I’m not saying hookless rims never fail, I bet that all rim manufacturers have a percentage of wheel failures. Say that the percentage of failures is the same across all manufacturers (1% for example) Enve, Giant and Zipp combined make up such a large percentage of the wheel market, 1% failures for them is probably 4x the number of any other brand and therefore you’re going to hear more about it. You obviously see and hear more about this then most of us, being in the bicycle industry so perhaps I’m wrong on this, I just find it hard to believe Giant, Zipp and Enve, some of the biggest companies in the bike industry, are willing to destroy their companies with potential safety related law suits and complete loss of credibility over saving a few bucks not putting a hook in.

If we are going to do a 'Public Service Announcement' you should also note that GP5000 S TR 25c size "cannot" be used on rim inner width over 21mm even for HOOKED RIMS (according to Conti themselves). So internal width plays some kind of role even for hooked rims. And an argument has to be made as to whether we really need 25mm internal width?

From what I've seen in road bike world - 28mm is a 'wide' tire, and the idea of going 'wider' is a no go. And, the manfrs have wheels out there on bikes. What are they going to say - yes, in spite of what we told you, we know that wheel/tire combo is sh*t. Go wider tires or buy new wheels. A lot of consumers would demand a refund.

I've disagreed with your stance on hookless wheels and still do. My thoughts in general about the "hookless debate" is that the focus is on the wrong side of the equation. People are focusing on the wheel manufacturers, when they should be looking at the TIRE manufacturers. And you conveniently overlooked the KEY part of the Zipp quote from the article: "Tyre manufacturers own the responsibility of tyre retention, they prioritise safety and performance, and it is their prerogative to declare which tyre sizes can be used." There's nothing inherently dangerous about hookless design. EVERYBODY knows this from their direct experience: every other wheeled vehicle on the planet uses hookless wheels, from race cars to airplanes, and under much higher loads than bikes, with no issues. ANYTHING will fail if not designed for the particular use case or if used out of specification. The problem isn't hookless rims, it's a lack of information for the consumer and a lack of tight tolerances from TIRE manufacturers.

One of the reasons why we don't currently see issues with cars, planes, and other vehicles with hookless designs is due to third party organizations, such as ETRTO and SAE, and governmental agencies like the US DOT issuing standards and overseeing the sandbox that wheel manufacturers and tire manufacturers play in. In many ways, the bicycle industry is late to the party. Hookless rims can work, but three of they key things that are needed are: rims built to a specified standard, tires designed and built to work with that standard, and an educated consumer base that can (with or without the assistance of their local bike shop) properly identify the proper combination and use conditions.

Tubulars are a big pain in the neck, gluing tires that's crazy. Clincher tires on a box rim solved a lot of issues except in performance. SO NOW we get the carbon rim to last for more than 12K miles, and we throw this stupid hookless rim / latex goop thing .

ENVE tests all the tires they officially list as compatible, to meet their internal safety standards. ETRTO is very important as not every rim and wheel manufacturer can cross test every tire and wheel combination, and therefore, if both wheel and tire meet the ETRTO standards, they‘ll work.

You should really state this as a caveat for ROAD hookless......not even gravel. MTB has been on hookless for 8-10yrs now, and the reason there isn't a compatibility stipulation is because they operate in completely different environments when it comes to PSI. Gravel and MTB tires run at such lower pressures the design works. I've personally been on Atomik carbon hookless rims for 5 or 6 yrs now....no issues. Been using Zipp 303S with a variety of different gravel tires, no issues. I believe the Zipps are compatible with the Conti 5000 TLs, never tried it. I have faster wheels on my road bike and run tubeless (currently on the 5000S TR in 30mm, no issue. The rest, 100% agree.

ETRTO set the standards which european manufacturers should adhere to. When it comes to dimensions they say 29mm however in the manual there will be a +/- tolerance. Brand abc maybe recomending there 28mm which has been manufactured to the top end of the tolerance and actualy when mounted is infact 29mm. Regardless i would never run a hookless tyre / rim, in my eyes is dangerous!!

Bike stores should be well trained on this matter or matters related to their business to recommend the consumer what is good and safe to purchase. You know lots of people go and buy things that probably aren't appropriate to their needs. You should guide them to not pump 120 psi on a hookless or even before that inquiry if the customer has hookless rims for example. In that way customers will be educated, safe and grateful. BTW I don't have hookless and don't plan on getting any besides I'm heavy so I need more than 70 something PSI in my tires. I even went back from tubeless to tubes both in MTB and Road bikes, I just ride mostly on the weekends.- Nothing rides like tubulars but they are now scarce (wheels, tires and mastik) in Costa Rica and expensive.

A factor not discussed in this guideline is how the tire measures. I have 28 tires that, on the rim, measure the same as 26, I also have some gravel 28's that measure closer to a 30. How much sidewall and other variables like what the carcass is made up of will effect how a tire seats on the rim. I've never felt comfortable with hookless, but I'll admit to being enough of an Enve fanboi that if they said it was alright, I would go along.

True hookless is a shit. It might be usable maybe only in mtb because if high volume and low pressure tires. For road use rims should be hooked or at least hybrid hook (mini-hook). Because of higher pressure in road wheels, hooked rims is much more stable in keeping the tire in place. The real reason why hookless rims are promoted by big companies, that it is easier and more cheap in production.

I think the minimum reccomendation of a 29c tire on a 25mm hookless rim is not specific enough. With wider rims nowadays, a 25c tire blows up to 27-28mm wide. And not all tires with the same size label are the same size. Vittoria has charged their sizing of tires, so that a 28c tire would actually be 28mm when mounted onto a wheel. And tires like the GP 5000 S TR are developed and tested with Zipp and Enve hookless rims… So it would be a little weird for them to not be safe anymore. They should have made more effort to list all tire sizes from all different brands onto different rims with the safe range of tire pressures. To me it seems like the ETRTO is just trying to save their own ass by tarring all tires with the same brush: “If you are not using 29c tires on a 25mm hookless rim, and something goes wrong, Its not our fault.”

@@GCPerformance18 you are correct, system is the same but equipment isn’t but the underlying ‘tech’ behind hookless regardless of platform (car, moto, truck, bike, etc.) is all the same. Naturally different inner rim widths, tire sizes, temperature ranges, terrains, altitudes, etc are all going to have an effect on tires performance and how much air you should be pumping into the tires. Again, everyone I’ve seen complain about hookless from my personal experience, whether it be in person or online, all are pumping extreme amounts of air into a thin tire going far beyond what a rim can handle; that is user error not product error. The logic applies to cars, bikes, motos, etc. really; amount of times I’ve seen people pump like 50+ psi into their car tires and then one pot hole later either damage the rim, blow out the tire or worse, ultimately that’s user error 🤷♂️
