The two new wheelsets should be light enough for longer climbs and at the same time have enough stability reserves to let it rip downhill. This is made possible by 21 millimeter wide aluminium rims, which have been milled out between the spoke holes to save weight. The more elegant "Red Zone XLR" version also relies on aluminum spokes and thus weighs in at a slim 1705 grams per pair. However, even the cheaper "Red Zone" version with standard steel spokes is still considerably light for an enduro wheelset, weighing 1750 grams.

Fulcrum supplies both wheelsets with either 15 or 20 millimeter thru axles on the front wheel and classic quick-release axle or 12 millimeter thru axle at the rear. The new wheels are compatible with tubeless tires and boast well-known and proven Fulcrum technologies, such as double-sealed deep groove ball bearings and two-in-one spoking.www.fulcrumwheels.com
