How much faster is a Zipp 808 front wheel versus a Zipp 404 front wheel?
I am curious if anyone knows the answer... I am currently running a ZIP Super 9 disk in back with a 404 up front. Just for fun, how much faster would an 808 upfront be? Also, more importantly, how much cooler would it look?

If aero trumps weight, then coolness trumps aero, so unless there are gale-force crosswinds you can't lose with an 808. Unless that means going out to buy a new wheel ... in that case a full wallet trumps coolness.
next year will be wheels upgrade for me.. thinking between zipp or Flo
Well 2x 808's looks sweet. Just sayin'. Tons of random stuff but this is good context:

+1.
+1 808 FTW. I will use a front 404 with a rear 808 in training, if it's windy, but I'm embarrassed about it.
So, the consensus is that they will be faster... moderately. And, that they will look way cooler.... Love it!
Totally. I love my h3, and the combination of the "schwommmmp .... Schwommmmp ... " sound of the disk, and the "fwap ... Fwap ... Fwap " sound of the trispoke is badass music. If I actually passed people in races, I bet it would be totally intimidating.
I got the Enve 7.8s on my Ventum and agree !!
Hed3 with a Zipp disk? I gotta check the rules. A mixed manufacturer wheel "set" sounds like a violation of some sort....
Don't let Jonny Dietrich see that, he'll spank you for the violation
