In fact the new wheels are not solely for road use, as they can also handle light off-road riding too (ASTM category 2), so that your fun can extend beyond traffic-congested roads. This project embraces the various ways that people are using road bikes lately. From the range-topping Speed family, in terms of performance, the Wind 42 inherit many of Fulcrum’s proprietary technologies, to offer a superior ride feel compared to the previous generation. Handling has been improved by 22% and reactivity by +10%* on these versatile and comfortable wheels, making them perfect for modern cyclists. Amongst the most evident changes there are the rims whose height has been raised to 42 mm, with an inner rim channel of 23 mm. The graphics have been completely redesigned too and reflect the new Form Function Fulcrum brand identity, with a minimal and at the same time refined design, which includes new icons that provide all the product’s technical information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTyre type: 2-Way Fit™ (tube \u0026amp; tubeless)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTyre size: 28\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscipline: Road\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAstm category: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReal weight: 1.525 Kg (pair)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRim material: Full Carbon (FF80)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRim material detail matt: Resin Finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfile height: Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRim height: 42 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRim width: 29 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInner rim width: 23 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTyre width: from 25 mm to 65 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreaking system: Disc Brake\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eObreaking system option: AFS™\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront axle compatibility: HH12-100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear axle compatibility: HH12-142\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront wheel spokes: 24\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear wheel spokes: 24\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpokes material: Stainless steel - Double butted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpokes profile: Rounded, straight pull\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNipples: Aluminum, Self-locking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront hub: Aluminum, Low flanges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear hub: Aluminum, Low flanges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBearings: Sealed bearing, Adjustable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOthers: Real Axle Technology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight limit (system): 120 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFWB options: XDR, HG11, N3W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eTechnologies \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2-WAY FIT™\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2-Way Fit™ profile for tubeless and clincher.

The keyword for our products is: traceable. If you find a little label attached to any Fulcrum® product, do not remove it. It will provide you a guarantee in case of an ascertained defectiveness of a production batch, and so the component needed or wheel will be traceable. All this because, devoted to its mission, Fulcrum® demands the absolute perfection and safety for its customers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAFS AXLE SYSTEM™\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRIM FULL CARBON TECHNOLOGY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFull carbon Fulcrum® rims are built using combinations, developed in the laboratory, of different types of fibre, including UD and the famous 90-degree 3K of models at the top of our range. To build them we developed a special HTG (high transition grade) resin, whose glass transition point is at a higher temperature than any other fibre used in the bicycle industry. This gives incomparable performance when braking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWIDE RIM TECH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFulcrum®’s R\u0026amp;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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUNDRILLED RIM BED\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo holes on the bridge connector means that the rim is uniform at every point, free from critical areas subject to stress. The advantages are immediately clear: less weight, longer lasting rims, greater resistance to fatigue, the possibility of giving the spokes more tension and more stiffness which, in terms of performance, means improved responsiveness and acceleration.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fulcrum","offers":[{"title":"Shimano","offer_id":48058844348657,"sku":"RW42-24DFR22AS","price":1257.73,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sram XD-R","offer_id":48058844381425,"sku":"RW42-24DFR22AX","price":1257.73,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Campagnolo N3W","offer_id":48058844414193,"sku":"RW42-24DFR22AC3","price":1572.17,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0794\/1580\/4145\/files\/zm_20230913-050821.jpg?v=1776539373","url":"https:\/\/novasportsbikes.com\/products\/fulcrum-wind-42-db-2wf-c21-afs-wheelset-1","provider":"Nova Sports Bikes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
