New ENVE Wheels
The new ENVE SES 4.5 PRO wheelset makes its in-game debut in September’s races, with every rider automatically placed on these wheels for each event. Word is these wheels are fast, and Zwift says this month’s courses were chosen “to showcase their all-round dominance.”
It’s not just marketing hype, either: the IRL wheels were developed with direct input from Tadej Pogačar and UAE Team Emirates XRG over two seasons, and this year they amassed 25+ victories before Tadej won the Tour de France! They’re lighter and more refined than the standard ENVE 4.5, including new hub and bearing technologies.
You can test the new wheels for free in September’s ZRacing, then head to the Drop Shop whenever you’d like to buy them:

GC Leaderboards
Zwift’s web-based leaderboards are used for tracking the monthly GC competition for the ZRacing series. No ZwiftPower registration or use is necessary.
Access the ZRacing leaderboards at zwift.com/racing/zracing >
Your GC ranking is based on your best finishing time for each stage, and you can race each stage more than once to try for a better time.
Category Options
Zwift schedules three different flavors of ZRacing events in order to encourage “Fairer, more competitive racing for everyone.” They each use different racing score ranges for categorization and are titled Advanced, Range 1, and Range 2. Click banners below to see upcoming events for each:
Extras
Get the Badge
Each month’s ZRacing series has a unique achievement badge, which you can unlock by finishing every stage for the month. There are no makeup events, so if you miss a stage, you miss out on the badge and competing in the GC.
One and Done
Zwift has planned these events to deliver a solid 1-hour workout, so each race should only take around 1 hour to complete, including your warmup and cooldown.
