Product details

The new Racing 5 DB wheels are the perfect choice for long-distance racing bikes. The rims, with their low 24 mm U-profile, reduce air resistance and increase stiffness, saving energy and enhancing comfort. They are well-equipped for long rides and steep climbs, without having to worry about rain or wind.

The internal width of the aluminum rim has been increased to 20 mm (compared to 17 mm in the previous model), and the rim now features the innovative 2-Way Fit system, allowing tires from 25-28 mm to fit perfectly, whether they are clincher or tubeless tires (tubeless tape is pre-installed and valves are included).

The aesthetics have been enhanced, like the new Racing DB 4, with new laser-etched graphics to ensure the long lifespan of this striking design.

The Anti-Rotation System takes the concept of the spoke system to a new level of performance. Fulcrum's engineers have redesigned the spokes and hub shells to create a solid and stable unit. This means that the spokes: a) will never lose their initial tension, keeping the wheel perfectly responsive and centered, and b) will remain in the position developed in the wind tunnel to ensure the best possible aerodynamics.

The F.I.C. Fulcrum Identification Card represents 100% handmade quality. Since its founding, Fulcrum has maintained a consistent approach: planning, prototype development, and industrialization of all wheels bearing the red "F". Each individual wheel component, the selected materials, and the technologies used are the tangible results of the efforts that Fulcrum invests daily to provide you with the highest performance and reliability.

The rim asymmetry has been designed to improve the tension of the rim while balancing the forces coming from the brakes and the cassette.
