Fulcrum represents a pinnacle of performance and design. The Racing Speed XLR wheelset was designed with 50mm deep gloss carbon rims and a buttery hub set with Campagnolo's signature ceramic bearings. The XLR stands is yet another example of how deep section carbon rims will increase your cross bike's handling in sloppy terrain while providing you the stiffness you need for gap-closing efforts and race-winning sprints. The rear drive side hub flange is incredibly large but material is removed where unneeded for direct power transfer, light weight and a killer look. But it's what is inside that counts. CULT (Ceramic Ultimate Level Technology) ceramic bearings are of the highest quality and roll with oil rather than grease for greater smoothness and easier serviceability. The ceramic bearings pair with Cronitect® races and a thermochemical treatment for incredible durability and smoothness over standard stainless races. Durability and speed, that's exactly what you want out of your wheelset for a series of weekend warfare in the cold and wet.
Butted and bladed spokes round out this stiff, light and strong package. 18 spokes are radially laced in front with 21 spokes laced in Fulcrum's signature two-to-one pattern. For every spoke on the non-drive side of the wheel, there is a pair of spokes on the drive-side to compensate for the incredible torque received by the drivetrain. Includes 2 skewers, 2 valve extenders, 2 valve tools, and 4 specially formulated carbon brake pads (Fulcrum carbon rims require the use of these special pads). Tubular tire compatible only. 1300 grams (weighed without skewers).
