FULCRUM RACING 5 Clincher Wheelset 2012

Designed for a long service life, perfect for everyday use: a Racing 5 wheelset is the ideal companion for your training. Racing 5 wheels are the best example of how accumulated experience with the pros is effectively transferred into mid-range wheels. Excellent technical performance along with a high impact aggressive look: the Racing 5 clincher is the perfect choice for those who seek a winning price/performance ratio.

The unique spoke design is Fulcrum's 2:1 Two-to-One™ Spoke Ratio for a great looking wheel that has added stiffness in critical areas. When you push on the pedals, the rotational force on the sprocket induces a slackening of the freewheel spokes with a consequent loss of rim tension. This results in undesirable flex of the whole wheel and an unavoidable loss of energy. Fulcrum® has solved this classic cycling problem with its 2:1 Two-to-One™ Spoke Ratio patent, by doubling the spokes in the critical zones. As a result there are two spokes which carry out the function of one, slackening and torsion are limited and the transfer of the athlete’s power is much more effective. Also, thanks to this system, spoke tensions are balanced more evenly between drive and non-drive sides and the fatigue life of the rim, hub and spokes is lengthened.

The rim contains reinforcing eyelets for added stiffness and spoke tension.

Fulcrum has designed an advanced quick release system that allows you to modulate the pressure necessary for heightened sensitivity to find the proper closure for the block. Easy to use, with a material resistant to wear and tear, rust, and pressure.

The steel balls in sealed cylindrical bearings reduce friction and give consistent performance. 

Compatible with clincher tires. Available with Campy or Shimano Cassette Body.
