Product description
Fulcrum Rapid Red 5 DB Wheelset Gravel 27.5" HG 8-11-speed Disc CL Clincher TLR black (black)
Bikepacking? Bike racing without the support of cars? Being free from the confines of paved roads? Strade Bianche, travel, dirt roads and new horizons...
People are riding, further and over rougher terrain, than ever before For some, it's a new way to put themselves to the test; for others, it's an alternative lifestyle and a new opportunity.
B-Road, or "Gravel" can be all these things and the Rapid Red 5 DB was designed and manufactured by Fulcrum to do it all
In the development of the Rapid Red 5 DB, Fulcrum's department has taken all the experience and technical solutions for road bike wheels and redesigned them for riding beyond the asphalt.
For the Strade Bianche, dirt roads and gravel roads you need wide rims, in this case 23mm , with tough low profile 24mm rims to absorb shocks and guarantee an outstanding ride comfort, regardless of the terrain.
The profile allows mounting tyres between 30 and 46mm Tubeless Ready, with many options for adjustment depending on the distance to be covered. The 24 straight-head spokes, held by a sturdy aluminum hub, guarantee the ideal support for off-road terrain, as well as for the increased weight of a bike ready for the journey.
Get ready for your next trip: Check the equipment, prepare the lights and take all the time you need. Rapid Red 5 DB is your faithful companion - comfortable, reliable, light and precise.
This means absolute freedom.
