WHEELS: Fulcrum Red Metal Zero Disc mtb

Fulcrum Red Metal Zero Disc

The top of the off-road Fulcrum® range is dominated by the preferred wheel of champions Red MetalTM Zero, used in competitions by Julien Absalon and his companions in the Orbea Cross Country Team.

It has a welded rim with a 23.5 mm side, worked with a triple milling operation, a Fulcrum® patent, and with a specific profile for disk brakes. The assembly configuration uses aluminium spokes with an aerodynamic profile and stainless steel nipples arranged in a 2:1 Two-to-One configuration; 16+8 for both wheels, with the 16 spokes located on the disc side of the front wheel and on the sprocket set side of the rear one for greater performance.

The hubs have an oversize aluminium body that rotates by means of adjustable bearings on a 20 mm axle.

This wheel is compatible with UST Tubeless tyres and with the AFSTM Fulcrum® systems or the International Standard as far as the disc brakes are concerned.

Nominal weight*:
front: 706 gr
rear: 862 gr

* The weight of the wheels does not include the quick release, and it refers to the lightest configuration.
