The spokes will remain in the position that has been studied in the wind tunnel tests to ensure the best aerodynamic penetration possible. Fulcrum Identification Card (F.I.C.) 100% Handmade Quality: Right from its inception Fulcrum has been marked by a feature that continues to this day: that is to design, prototype and industrialise all the wheels characterised by the red “F”. Indeed these take shape inside of the R&D, the leading-edge department that represents the beating heart of the Italian company. Every single component of the wheel, the materials chosen and the technologies applied are the tangible result of the effort that Fulcrum makes every day to give you maximum performance and reliability. 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. Asymmetric Rim: The asymmetry is designed to improve rim tension, balancing the forces from brakes and sprocket cassette. 2-Way Fit Ready: This procedure transforms Racing 5 DB wheels (designed to be used with a clincher tyre and inner tube) into tubeless ready wheels (i.e. with a Tubeless Easy tyre, no inner tube and compulsory use of a sealant liquid). Use of tubeless and tubeless ready tyres is forbidden on 2-way Fit Ready rims without official Fulcrum 2-way Fit Ready adhesive tape. This model comes with tubeless type installed and valves included.
