The Fulcrum Racing Zero wheelset is Fulcrum’s lightest aluminum
wheel. 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 these wheels is
their weight and aggressive appearance. The weight savings is made possible
with Fulcrum’s special extrusion process. 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. The Fulcrum
Racing Zero’s spin up noticeably faster than the Racing 1 wheels due to the
145grams in rim weight savings.
At high speeds you’re truly going to notice the attention to
detail on the Fulcrum Racing Zero’s. Fulcrum’s Dynamic Balance shines as these
wheels track true at speeds in excess of 40 mph. A testament 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. With no sacrifice for durability in the pursuit
of ultra lightweight aluminum wheels.
Technology
- 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
For clarification - this purchase includes a one front and
one rear wheel along with their related goodies. We do not sell these as
singles. Also make note of your cassette. Shimano 10 hub bodies are not
compatible with SRAM cassettes or Shimano 9 speed cassettes.
