This steel is resistent to the corrosion of the highest level until the point that no grease is necessary for lubrication, maybe just a small amount of oil.\u003cbr\u003eThe top quality ceramic balls, thanks to the absence of lubricating grease and the precision machine of the cup and cone technology, allow to reduce the friction coefficient drastically and then increase the smoothness of triathlon and road bike wheels by as much as 9 times compared to standard bearings.\u003cbr\u003eAn outstanding result achieved by using cutting-edge technologies in the field of materials processing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"product-title-wrap\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-title\"\u003eRDB™ RIM DYNAMIC BALANCE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-desc\"\u003eThe concept is simple and elegant: balance the weight of the gasket, with an item of similar weight placed on the exact opposite side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"product-title-wrap\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-title\"\u003e2:1 TWO-TO-ONE™\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-desc\"\u003eWhen 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.\u003cbr\u003eThis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"product-title-wrap\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-title\"\u003e2:1 TWO-TO-ONE SPOKE RATIO™ - DISC BRAKE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-desc\"\u003eA system that is as simple as it is effective, the result of the ingenuity of Fulcrum® engineers and attentive observation of the results of the tests performed on the wheels on a daily basis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese tests made it possible to understand that the forces that act on the sides of the wheels, and therefore on the spokes, are extremely different; but what’s more, the differences between the front and rear wheels are also evident and significant. The front wheel, in fact, has to remain stable even during braking of the disk on the left side, and the rear wheel, in addition to the sprocket set, has to compensate for the traction of the force on the chain side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"product-title-wrap\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"product-title\"\u003eDRSC™ - DIRECTIONATED RIM-SPOKE COUPLING\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-desc\"\u003eExclusive rim\/spoke coupling system.

Without question - must stay on the sprocket side.\u003cbr\u003eTo combat the loss of braking power from flex and torque of the connector between the two sides of the hub, a special one-piece system has been devised with internal stiffening ribs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fulcrum","offers":[{"title":"Shimano \/ Wheelset \/ Tubular \/ 700c","offer_id":39330779889710,"sku":"FC-RS-19T4DFR22A","price":4751.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1336\/3759\/files\/Fulcrum-Speed-40T-Disc-Brake-Tubular-Wheelset-Fulcrum-7910681.jpg?v=1746519334","url":"https:\/\/lifobikes.com\/en-ca\/products\/fulcrum-speed-40t-disc-brake-tubular-wheelset","provider":"LafoBikes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
