Fulcrum Racing 5 LG 700c DB 6-Bolt Road Wheelset 2016 Review

• Fulcrum Racing 5 LG 700c DB 6-Bolt Road WheelsetWith the supreme stopping power of disc brakes, the Fulcrum Racing 5 LG disc wheelset is the ideal road cycling wheelset for winter training, commuting or even cyclo-cross. Comfort and traction are guaranteed via the wider rim profile Lightweight, Efficient and Stable Road Race WheelsetThis complete road disc wheelset weighs 1,725 grams. Keeping the weight down has been possible through by incorporating a new single-piece body that embodies the freewheel body and pawl carrier in a single component resulting in a considerable weight reduction. Fulcrum’s Racing 5 LG disc wheelset features their AFS (Axial Fixing System) technology, which allows the rotor to be fitted to the hub, ensuring greater structural rigidity and precise, more powerful braking Features: Material: Rims, Hubs: Aluminium; Spokes: Stainless Steel Rim Height: 26mm Rim Width: Internal: 17mm; External: 21 8mm Rim Type: Clincher, 2-Way-Fit Tubeless Ready Braking Interface: Disc Brake, 6-Bolt Spoke Count: 21 Freehub: 9, 10, 11-Speed Bearings: Sealed Cartridge Bearings Weight: 1.71kgTechnologies: Anti-Rotation System: This system locks the spoke in place once the correct tension is achieved. Engineers at Fulcrum have designed this system to ensure the spokes never lose their initial tension and to remain in the position that has been proven to provide the perfect aerodynamic properties. AFS Axle System: Using a disc rotor mount on the hub body and a Thru-axle engagement, Fulcrum have developed an axle system that integrates perfectly with the frame/fork dropouts and provides flex-free performance when putting the power down and optimised stability when applying heavy braking loads to your disc brake calipers. Disc Specific Rim: Fulcrum is one of the first wheel manufacturers to create two completely different rim profiles, one for rim brakes, one for disc. The aim was to save as much weight as possible for the disc brake rim and to achieve greater aerodynamics. The added rim width means also that tyres with widths of 28mm and upwards can fit perfectly to this rim profile. Monoblock Disc Hub: The main issue that Fulcrum addressed was to combat the braking force that is applied to the wheel when using disc brakes, which creates a loss in braking power and causes the wheel to flex. Fulcrum designed a hub to be created from a complete Monoblock one-piece system, which features internal stiffening struts. This hub design creates a flex free, stiff wheel foundation that performs to a consistently exceptional level when accelerating and braking. 2-Way Fit: This tubeless system is specifically designed for Fulcrum wheels when used in conjunction with Schwalbe Tubeless easy (TL-Easy) clincher tyres Buy Fulcrum Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
