Fulcrum Red Zone 5
Pickup available at Novo Cicli
Usually ready in 24 hours
The goal of Fulcrum engineers was to develop two products perfect for training and leisure, durable and reliable for cross-purpose use.
The hubs are new and now share the same shell as those used for their bigger sisters, the Red Zone Carbon and Red Zone 3. They differ, however, in the axle and in the type of bearings: for the Red Metal 5 and Red Zone 5, in fact, sealed bearings are used, long-lasting and effective, with the possibility of micro-adjusting the play via a special adjustment ring.
The Fulcrum Red Zone 5 features a 2-WAY FIT READY rim with a height of just 18.6 mm and a new asymmetric section, specifically redesigned to optimally balance the spoke tensions.
The rim width is increased compared to previous versions, to allow use at lower pressures and therefore improve traction and control in the most extreme conditions.
A new graphic – tone-on-tone, with a partly glossy and partly matte finish – wraps around the rim profile in the valve area, while the traditional red box with the logo is placed on the opposite side.
