. The wait for a Fulcrum aluminium/carbon wheelset is over! The Red Wind brings a top of the range wheel with outstanding performance. Incredible responsiveness is delivered by the aluminium/carbon structure, oversized hub & DRSC spoke fastening system The clincher rim is constructed from aluminium & carbon, which makes it extremely rigid. This allows for excellent responsiveness & durability. The exclusive pressing system for the rim in unpainted carbon means reduced weight & a smooth surface, free from imperfections. Layering of the carbon fibre gives the rim excellent stability, even at high speeds & the profile allows maximum aerodynamic penetration. Self-locking oversized aluminium nipples reduce peripheral mass of the wheel, which increases responsiveness & reduces the need for any maintenance. The hub is constructed of high quality aluminium with an oversized flange on the drive side. The result is increased lateral & torsional stiffness, which increases responsiveness & reduces weight. Completely redesigned quick release skewers are lighter, with an aerodynamic profile. Eccentric-closure system allows the rider to modulate the pressure necessary for heightened sensitivity to find the proper closure for the cassette
