Description
These are still at the top of the metal alloy wheels range in the Fulcrum® Red Metal Zero series: they are specific for the use of disc brakes. They provide the ideal choice for cross-country races because of the use of the 23.5 millimetre rims machined with triple milling. The maximum lightness has been obtained as a result without weakening the sides. The result is the best compromise for indulging your passion on impervious tracks and steep descents.
Compatibility with UST tubeless systems. Aluminium spokes with an aerodynamic profile and stainless steel nipples are used for assembly. The Two-To-One? configuration has been chosen for both wheels with 16 spokes on one side and 8 on the other. Doubling is on the disc brake side of the front wheel and on the freehub side of the rear one. The oversize hubs feature a 20 millimetre axle running on high-precision bearings.
There there is also a Red/Black version having a red rim, black spokes, and red hub.
Average weight*:
front: 720 g
rear: 880 g
* The weight of the wheels does not include the quick release, and it refers to the lightest configuration.

Cons: UST air holding ability
Price
Recommendation: Love these rims regardless of the price. They would have gotten a rating of 5 if they held the air a little longer. I have to pump air into the tire each day I ride. I put USTs on my wifes bike and hers hold air for months.
