2. Fulcrum Rapid Red 5 DB
Bikepacking? Road racing without support from cars? Free from the constraints of paved roads? Strade Bianche, traveling, unpaved paths, and new horizons... There are many interpretations of this new trend, which is no longer just pursued by a select few but represents a new way for many to experience cycling. For some, it’s a new challenge, for others, an alternative choice and a new opportunity. B-Road, or gravel, encompasses all of this, and the Rapid Red 5 DB has been specifically designed and manufactured by Fulcrum for that purpose.
In developing the Rapid Red 5 DB, Fulcrum's research and development department utilized all their experience and technical solutions for road bike wheels and adapted them for routes beyond asphalt. For Strade Bianche, unpaved paths, and gravel roads, a wide channel is necessary, which measures 23 mm on this wheel, paired with low and extremely durable 24 mm rims to absorb shocks and ensure outstanding riding comfort, regardless of the bumps.
The profile allows for the installation of Tubeless Ready tires ranging from 30 to 46 mm, with many options for adjustment depending on the terrain. The 24 straight-pull spokes, supported by a sturdy aluminum hub, provide the ideal support for unconnected terrain as well as for the slightly increased weight of a bike ready for travel.
Prepare for your next adventure: check your gear, get your lights ready, and take all the time you need. The Rapid Red 5 DB is your faithful companion – comfortable, reliable, lightweight, and precise. That means absolute freedom.

How often do you think about a wheelset that is suitable for everything, optimal for winter, agile and powerful uphill, without limitations when the road is not easy to navigate, reliable and ready when you only need to think about training, a faithful companion when the goal is to conquer high mountain passes, long distances, and great adventures? The Racing 3 DB is a concentration of technology designed to push performance limits in a variety of situations, setting a new standard for satisfaction and reliability. It is not a wheelset for racing bikes and gravel bikes that aims to impress, one might say. Fulcrum's R&D department focused on substance, elevating everything to a higher level and selecting the most balanced and advanced technical solution for each fundamental component. Are we sure that once you hit the road, you won't truly be amazed? Extremely smooth-running thanks to the sliding and cone bearing system, comfortable due to steel spokes that provide 25% higher absorption capacity than the more race-oriented Racing Zero.

9. Fulcrum Racing 5
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.
