Fulcrum Racing 1 Wheelset

The Fulcrum Racing 1 wheelset is both durable and light. It’s no secret that Fulcrum has received help from Campagnolo (who makes the wheels for Fulcrum)  with the launch of this new line. No other launch saw so many pro riders using them in their first year, just look at the Tour.

The first thing you notice when you hold the Racing 1 wheels is the attention to detail and aggressive appearance of the Racing 1. When you spin the wheels you can feel Campagnolo’s famous bearings inside the oversized aluminum hub.  The wheels spin effortlessly on silky smooth bearings.

On the road, the aero spokes help cut through the wind and the box section rim tracks precisely into and out of turns. With the 2:1 patented spoke technology it’s hard to get these wheels to flex. They spin up very quickly while coming out of turns or sprinting. The Fulcrum Racing 1 inspires confidence and the ride quality is superb.

At high speeds you’re truly going to notice the attention to detail on the Fulcrum Racing 1’s. Fulcrum’s Dynamic Balance shines as these wheels track true at speeds in excess of 40 mph. A testimate to Fulcrum’s efforts to counter act the weight difference often seen in regular aluminum wheels caused by the weld.

Every part on these wheels is replaceable and the craftsmanship is outstanding.

• 2:1 Patented two-to-one spoke ratio reduces flex, balances drive and non-drive sides, and increases fatigue life of rim and spokes
• Dynamic Balance – balances the rim so joint does not cause high-speed hopping
• MoMag – no holes on inner side of rim, though regular nipples are used for ease of tension adjustment. No special tool required
