Fulcrum Racing 3 C17 Wheelset

Description

Fulcrum
Racing 3 C17 Wheelset
The aluminium rim (T6 Pre-aged) for traditional brakes with a 17 mm groove and featuring new shapes and harmonious milling in line with the outer edges, without adding any superfluous weight and creating a highly pronounced central supporting structure.
Extremely Reactive: the Racing 3 C17 Wheelset from Fulcrum This is a sturdy and comfortable wheel ideal for long distance cycling thanks to the enhanced shock absorption guaranteed by its aerodynamic steel spokes. It also has a extremely smooth rolling action thanks to the bottom bracket cup technology which is a guarantee in itself. Reliable and ultra-stylish there is no need to compromise with this wheel. It is suitable for two types of cyclists: those who use it for training and don’t want to compromise on a quality cycling experience and passionate cyclists who go out for long rides and place importance on the versatility and comfort that the aluminium structure and steel spokes on this model are able to offer.

ANTI-ROTATION SYSTEM? This new system raises the concept of spoking to a new level of performance for road bike and triathlon wheels ( and mtb too) The Fulcrum? engineers have redesigned the spokes and the hub housings to create a solid and unmoveable whole. The result is that the spokes a) will never lose their initial tension, thus keeping the wheel perfectly reactive and centred b) will remain in the position that have been studied in the wind tunnel tests to ensure the best aerodynamic penetration possible.
RDB? RIM DYNAMIC BALANCE The concept is simple and elegant: balance the weight of the gasket, with an item of similar weight placed on the exact opposite side.
2:1 TWO-TO-ONE?
When you push on the pedals, the rotational force on the sprocket induces a slackening of the freewheel spokes with a consequent loss of rim tension. This results in undesirable flex of the whole wheel and an unavoidable loss of energy. Fulcrum? has solved this classic cycling problem with its 2:1 Two-to-One? Spoke Ratio patent, by doubling the spokes in the critical zones.
DRSC? – DIRECTIONATED RIM-SPOKE COUPLING
Exclusive rim/spoke coupling system. It allows the rim, spokes, nipples and hub to align properly with the same tensioning value in all areas.
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.
CUP & 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.
DIFFERENTIATED RIM HEIGHT
Two different heights for front and back. A bigger challenge in construction, but necessary to achieve the very best. The lower front wheel improves handling, limiting weight to a maximum and also mass involved when turning and relaunching. The rear rim is higher and more solid, to transmit all the power to the wheel and increase stability.
OVERSIZE FLANGE
The Oversize Flange was developed from the need to create a system to transmit every watt to the ground without dispersion, stiffening the wheel system where necessary, without having to add spokes or superstructures that increase weight. The oversize flange uses physics to solve the problem. It increases dishing and enables spokes to be shortened. Doubling the spokes creates a balanced system that is excellent at transmitting torque.
