It could be said that Wind represents the right wheel at the right time: all of the most widely appreciated and sought-after features in a disc brake racing bike wheel are combined in the new, perfectly balanced design, boasting cutting-edge technological features in two of the most popular profile heights: 40 mm and 55 mm. It is interesting to go back to the very beginning, to the origins of this new project, and to note how the evolution of the hugely popular Racing Quattro Carbon models triggered a true revolution: a totally new wheel upon which each and every key component has been changed and improved - the rim, spokes and hubs are all new, conceived to work in harmony as a complete wheel offering impeccable performance. The new rim, which has been redesigned for use with the new, more generous tyres, is expertly crafted from several layers of carbon, culminating externally with a modern unidirectional finish.A winning mix of performance, solidity, aesthetics and riding pleasure, without resorting to more extreme solutions reserved for the top models offered by the competition. When designing the new Wind profiles, our R&D department made full use of the aerodynamic skills and knowledge gained during the studies carried out in recent years, which led to the development of the profiles now used by our teams on the World Tour, introducing these into a different context but with equally high standards of excellence.Its 40 mm full carbon unidirectional profile will be able to prove itself, providing what is needed: aerodynamic and stable in long stretches on the flat, light and agile in making the rhythm uphill, decisive and manageable in the most technical descents.The balance and harmony between your racing bike and Wind 40C will be immediate: you put them on and begin to discover a new level of performance. To achieve this objective, our R&D department combined several of the most popular technologies available: the full carbon, unidirectional rim is built without holes for passage of the nipples, Mo-Mag™ therefore, ensuring maximum stiffness and reliability.It promises braking like never before thanks to the AC3™ laser treatment on the braking track: laser processing allows the traces of resin to be eliminated from the surface in contact with the pads with a precision never seen before, improving behaviour in all conditions and up to 30% in the most complicated situations, in the rain.To transfer all the power in acceleration there is the oversize flange on the cogset side, with aero spokes arranged according to the Two-to-one™ scheme. that's Wind 40: technology, performance and substance, but in the end it will be able to completely change the character of your racing bike.Tyre Type: Clincher ,Tyre Size: 700C ,Discipline: Road / Triathlon ,Astm Category: 1 ,Weight: 1555g ,Rim Material: Carbon ,Rim Material Details: Full Carbon, Ud (Unidirectional) - Carbon Fiber Finishing ,Profile Height: Medium ,Rim Height: Front And Rear: 40mm ,Rim Width: 24,2mm ,Inner Rim Width(Channel): Etrto 17C ,Tyre Width: From 25mm to 50mm ,Braking System: Caliper ,Braking Surface/Brakes Options: "3K" Carbon Fiber Braking Surface.

Fulcrum Wind 75 Carbon Road Disc WheelsetThis race-ready wheelset features a high, ultra-aero profile that's ideal for time trials, triathlons and all situations where aerodynamics make the difference when pedalling at high speeds on your road bike. Fulcrum has equipped it with a high-quality full carbon rim construction with unidirectional carbon fibre finishing, so riders can enjoy the best balance of stiffness, strength and low weight performance on their ride. Aerodynamically researched and wind tunnel tested by the brand's engineers for maximum results, its rim width is 27mm and the channel width is 19mm which puts its internal and external dimension in line with modern racing trends.Full Carbon Wheelset with 2-Way Fit TechnologyFulcrum has kitted out this wheelset with a 2-Way Fit profile, which allows riders to fit both a tubeless tyre or a classic clincher. The advantages are indisputable, as the brand's tests have highlighted a unique increase in smoothness and it doesn't need any tape for sealing, simplifying and lightening the tyre-rim pairing. Because there is no tube, the friction caused by rubbing against the tyre is eliminated, while the perfect adherence of the tyre to the rim prevents the dispersion of energy. This also means that you'll have more flexibility to choose and test out which tyre works best for you. Tubeless advantages include the ability to run lower pressures for increased grip, comfort and fewer chances of flats or punctures.AFS Disc Brake Compatible and Aero Mo-Mag TechnologyReady for modern racing, this versatile wheelset is equipped with renowned Fulcrum technologies for getting the best performance out of every situation. Its AFS disc brake compatibility ensures that braking is powerful, precise and consistent, so you can tackle whatever the terrain or course conditions throw at you. Another highlight is its Mo-Mag technology that uses no holes on the rim to ensure that the rim is uniform at every point, free from stress points or zones of weakness and, for the clincher profiles no rim tape is required, for greater weight reduction.Double-Butted Spokes with Sealed Cartridge BearingsThis model's spokes are double-butted, rounded and straight-pull for excellent aerodynamic performance and the nipples are aluminium. As far as the internals are concerned, Fulcrum chose sealed cartridge bearings housed in aluminium hubs, for both the front and rear wheel. Coming complete with sleek graphics that will complement any ride, the Fulcrum Wind 75 Disc Brake Carbon Wheelset the perfect choice upgrade for increased speed, comfort and handling on race day.Features: Rim Material: Full Carbon Finish: Unidirectional (UD) Carbon Fibre Use: Road, Triathlon and Time Trial Axle Compatibility: Front: 12x100mm; Rear: 12x142mm Rim Height: Front and Rear: 75mm Rim Width: 27mm Inner Rim Width (Channel): 19mm Braking System: Disc Brake Braking Surface: AFS Tyre Type: 2-Way fit (for Clincher and Tubeless) Tyre Width: From 23mm to 50mm Profile Height: High Spokes Material: Stainless Steel, double-butted Spokes Profile: Rounded, straight-pull Front Wheel Spokes: 24 (Left: 16 left; Right: 8) Rear Wheel Spokes: 24 (Left: 8; Right: 16) Nipples: Aluminium Front Hub: Aluminium, Aluminium flanges Rear Hub: Aluminium, Aluminium flanges Bearings: Sealed cartridge bearings Axle Material: Aluminium Axle ASTM Category: 1 Weight Limit: 120kg (bike, rider, equipment and luggage) Freehub Type: Multiple options available to select separately Single or Pair: Pair Weight: 1820gTechnologies: 2-Way Fit: 2-Way Fit profile for tubeless and clincher. Fulcrum has developed 2-Way Fit technology to ensure perfect compatibility of its tubeless rims with normal clincher types and tubes. 2-Way Fit road bike wheels are perfectly multipurpose for tackling every situation. Thanks to a special impression in the valve area, the tubes are fitted with maximum precision, while keeping the tube perfectly stable inside the tyre. Housing the valve for tubeless tyres is also risk-free, with the unquestionable advantage that there are never any air infiltrations caused by non-ideal positioning when fitting. AFS Axle System: The Axial Fixing System is the solution developed by Fulcrum to fix the disc brake to the hub. The constraint granted by the butt area of the release mechanism, greater than in familiar standard ones, makes it possible to obtain greater structural rigidity and therefore more precise and powerful braking. Full Carbon Rim: Full carbon Fulcrum rims are built using combinations, developed in the laboratory, of different types of fibre, including unidirectional (UD). To build them Fulcrum developed a special HTG (high transition grade) resin, whose glass transition point is at a higher temperature than any other fibre used in the bicycle industry. This gives incomparable performance when braking. Fulcrum carbon products are also recognisable for their sophisticated workmanship: The rims are moulded with ready-made nipple holes, so no further hole-making is needed. Nor is polishing necessary to give them an impeccable appearance or make them technically ready for mounting. MoMag: A magnet and lots of ingenuity. This was what led to the patent for the well-tested “Mounting Magnet” system, or MoMag. No holes on the rim mean that the rim is uniform at every point, free from stress points or zones of weakness and, for the clincher profiles no rim tape is required, to the benefit of weight reduction. The advantages are immediately clear: greater rim lifetime, greater resistance to fatigue, the possibility to give the spokes greater tension, and greater stiffness which, in terms of performance, mean greater reactivity and acceleration.Manufacturer's Part Numbers: FULC0146827 Black 700c Shimano FULC0146829 Black 700c SRAM XDBuy Fulcrum Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Reactivity and resistance are the key words of Fulcrum’s return to the MTB arena. These two concepts have guided the development of the new Red Zone Carbon, a wheel that can handle challenging off-road terrain for demanding riders. Carbon MTB Wheelset Red Zone Carbon is the result of a long research and development process that has involved all the elements of the wheel, both individually (rims, hubs and spokes) and, most importantly, as a whole, to create a wheel system that is able to meet the demands of high-level bikers. Lightness and reactivity on one hand, for maximum performance uphill, and a high level of vertical absorption and resistance on the other, for the peace of mind of riders who want to abandon themselves to the adrenaline of heading downhill with confidence. Direct Inmold Matt Finish (DIMF) A powerhouse of technology, Red Zone Carbon is Fulcrum’s new formula for modern MTB use, with all its experience distilled in each component. A functional and unique design is married with a new matt finish straight from the mould (DIMF), with all the specifications that a rider expects from an XC/Marathon or Down Country wheel: inner rim width of 28mm, light and extremely smooth rolling rim in a wheel that is fully-produced in Europe and most of it in Italy.

This was what led to the patent for the well-tested “Mounting Magnet” system, or MoMag. Wide Rim Tech: Fulcrum’s R&D department, following requests from the competition circuit, has worked to create rims that are wider than before, about 4 mm or more than previously. This technical choice provides an ideal basis for 25/28mm tyres, the sizes currently popular. This ensures stability, excellent handling and superior comfort. Undrilled Rim Bed: No holes on the bridge connector means that the rim is uniform at every point, free from critical areas subject to stress. The advantages are immediately clear: less weight, longer-lasting rims, greater resistance to fatigue, the possibility of giving the spokes more tension and more stiffness which, in terms of performance, means improved responsiveness and acceleration. Cup and Cone: The cup-and-cone bearing differs from the classic cartridge bearing because it works in perfect alignment with the forces involved, weight and thrust from the frame, as the bearings run in a race positioned directly opposing these forces.
