Fulcrum Racing 5 Disc Brake Wheelset 2018

Fulcrum Fulcrum Racing 5 Disc Brake Wheelset 2018

Designed with Fulcrum's clean aesthetics and most importantly cutting-edge design, the Racing 5 Disc Brake Wheelset has been constructed with key technical features to offer the best levels of quality and performance. Ideal for the discerning rider wanting agile speed and precision handling, this wheelset is sure to enhance your ride with responsive power.

Constructing their rims with only top materials, Fulcrum have forged this wheelset with an asymmetric aluminium rim that boasts great torsional strength to minimise weight without diminishing strength. This construction with its asymmetric profile not only increases the overall strength of this sleek wheelset but also improves braking performances and power outputs thanks to its rigid build. Designed to perfectly accommodate 25mm tyres, the 21.8mm rim increases cornering traction whilst reducing rolling resistance for agile performances.

Designed specifically for disc brakes, Fulcrum have eliminated the braking track from the rims, resulting in a smooth finish and reduced weight. Combine this disc specific profile with the 26mm depth rim and you can be assured of aerodynamic performances that offer exceptional handling through high-speed descents.

The Axial Fitting System securely holds centre lock rotors in place using a tooth design that eliminates the need for bolts. This design not only creates cleaner aesthetics but also increases the wheelset's structural rigidity, providing you with confidence-inspiring braking and greater power efficiency.

Laced with 24 spokes that make use of the Anti-Rotation system, Fulcrum have produced a set of wheels that retain spoke tension with greater longevity, whilst ensuring the spokes remain in their optimised position for aerodynamic performances. At the heart of these wheels are the Monoblock Hubs that reduce the loss of braking power from flex for greater power outputs whilst simultaneously supporting explosive power with fast and efficient. accelerations.
