Fulcrum Racing 5 Wheelset

The 2010 Fulcrum Racing 5 Clincher Wheelset is fantastic value. The new Racing 5 is designed for everyday use and training. An optimum proposal from Fulcrum which guarantees excellent quality.

Key Features:

• The hubs are completely new: oversized and provided with flanges for blade hammer-head spokes. Smoothness is ensured by sealed high-quality bearings and they have a new single-piece body which incorporates the freewheel body and pawl carrier in a single component with a considerable reduction of weight.
• The spokes have blade hammer-heads of the Aero type and differentiated thickness, 20 in the front wheel and 24 in the rear wheel.
• There is radial spoking for the front wheel and the patented Fulcrum 2:1 Two-to-One Spoke Ratio for the rear wheel.
• Also unchanged is the presence of Dynamic Balance which, thanks to two oversized spokes, balances the concentration of the rim joint material during wheel rotation.
• The rim is a medium-sectioned one with a height of 24 mm with reinforcing eyelets for the spokes and turned braking surfaces.
• The new Racing 5 wheels have a deeper upper bridge of the rim to facilitate clincher tyre fitting.
• Spoke count: 20/24 (front/rear).
• Colour: Black.
• Skewers included.
• Freehub: Campagnolo and Shimano/SRAM are available, please choose from the suboptions above.
• Weight: 1760g (Manufacturer Claimed*).
