NEW LIGHTWEIGHT FULCRUM WHEELS
Fulcrum recently released the new Speed 25+ wheelset.
Following in the footsteps of the Red Zone Carbon+, the Speed 25 now takes on the ‘plus’ moniker, indicating the pinnacle of Fulcrum’s range and becoming the lightest low profile option for disc brakes ever produced.
Compared to the Speed 25 the weight has been dropped down to 1270 grams and they integrate the best Fulcrum technologies. The company says it is “an astounding set of wheels in terms of lightness and handling, without compromising reliability”.
