Fulcrum Racing 5 DB disc road braided wheels
Thanks to its disc brake mount and a weight of only 1610 grams, the tried and tested Racing 5 wheel offers even higher performance.
2-Way Fit Ready: the Racing 5 DB from Fulcrum
Racing 5 DB is a bicycle wheel that is all about substance and it certainly is brimming with it thanks to a series of key technical features that give this model versatility.This aluminium wheelset begins from solid foundations that are brought up to date with the latest trends: The 17C groove is a perfect fit for the 25 mm clincher tyres, while the low asymmetrical profile of the wheels gives them agility and adds responsiveness, combined with almost effortless steering.
In addition to all this, R&D has included some technical details that are trademarks of Fulcrum's products: aside from asymmetry, which is important for balancing the forces exerted by the hubs, the discs and the cassette, these aluminium wheels have the added benefit of a straight head spoke structure for increased stiffness, reactivity and power transfer.
Features - Racing 5 DB
NEW ASYMMETRIC RIM PROFILEasymmetrical rear rim profile allows for better balancing of spoke tensions between drive and non drive side, giving better symetry to an asymmetric component. Increased efficiency and reactivity are sure to be noted.
DOUBLE-BUTTED STEEL SPOKES WITH AERO PROFILE
enable maximum aerodynamic penetration.
OVERSIZED HUBS
increase wheel stiffness and reactivity
HIGH GRADE, TOP QUALITY STEEL BEARINGS WITH CUP AND CONE CONSTRUCTION
reduce friction and ensure consistent performance over time.
OVERSIZED FLANGE ON THE DRIVE SIDE
provides greater torsional stiffness, increases reactivity at each change in rhythm of the pedal stroke.
