Stiffer, more powerful, lighter: The Racing 5 wheelset by Fulcrum

Thanks to a completely novel concept, the tried-and-tested Racing 5 wheel now delivers even higher performance. The features that have made the Racing 5 such a popular wheel have been further enhanced, making this model not only accessible to all, but now even more ideal for racing. The new asymmetrical profile of the rear rims and a new 20-spoke design provide significant performance advantages in terms of lateral and torsional rigidity, but also in terms of increased reaction speed. This design offers a better distribution of spoke tension, resulting in a more rigid and powerful wheel.

Technology:

Anti-Rotation System™
Fulcrum's technicians have redesigned the spokes and hub shells to create a strong and solid unit. In this way, the spokes never lose their initial tension, keeping the wheel perfectly reactive and centred, and the wheel remains in the position developed in the wind tunnel to ensure the best possible aerodynamics.
