Fulcrum Racing Zero Black/Red Wheelset 09 - £703.70

Red spokes, black rims: wheels that are absolutely unmistakeable in the middle of the peleton. Two powerful colours and exclusive technology stand out from the crowd and make these wheels unique in terms of performance and personality. Racing Zero wheels are at the top of the Fulcrum range.

The very latest 2-Way Fit (Tubeless & Clincher) version is fitted without tubes, mostly to the advantage of safety and comfort but also in terms of performance. This is an advantageous product which offers a double choice, allowing you to choose the benefits of tubeless or the practicality of clincher tyres. Thanks to Ultra-Fit Tubeless technology, the use of the tubeless tyres drastically improves smoothness and reduces the risk of snake biting on rough roads. The release of air is also gradual in the event of puncturing: there is no risk of sudden deflation.

The rim is made using a special extrusion procedure which thins the walls. At the same time, the 26 millimetre thickness is a guarantee of strength. A rim of this type is excellent in terms of resistance and weight.

Further lightening has been obtained by milling the material between the spoke anchoring points while the rim is perfectly balanced thanks to Dynamic Balance technology. The spokes are made of aluminium with an aerodynamic profile. There are 16 in the front wheel, radially laced; 21 in the rear: 7 on the left and 14 on the right, in accordance with Two-to-One technology.

The hubs have alloy bodies and axles and run on adjustable high-precision bearings.

Racing Zero 2-Way Fit wheels are compatible with Campagnolo, Shimano Inc. and Sram Co. drivetrains.

Nominal weight*: front: 625 g rear: 800 g
