Fulcrum Wind 42 Center Lock Disc Carbon Wheelset

The Wind 42 Center Lock Disc 28" wheelset from Fulcrum - versatile, smooth and comfortable

Fulcrum Wind 42 is a high-performance, comfortable road bike wheelset with 42 mm deep and 23 mm wide rims made of FF80 carbon. It is versatile and also suitable for light off-road excursions. Compared to the previous model, several grams of weight have been saved and the handling and ride feel improved. The rim base has no holes, which is why no rim tape is required for mounting tyres, whether tubeless or with an inner tube. The hubs, which are compatible with center-lock brake rotors, have cartridge bearings, are sealed and are characterised by their high strength. The freehub has been updated and made even more efficient. The Wind 42 wheels are fitted with 24 double-butted spokes at the front and rear and have a torsion-resistant lacing pattern.

Technology:

MoMag
MoMag stands for Mounting Magnet and refers to a type of fastening for spokes in the rim bed. The spoke nipples are placed in the rim via the valve opening and brought to their destination by means of a magnet. The spokes are screwed into the nipples as standard. This also makes it possible to maintain and replace spokes with little effort.

Undrilled Rim Bed
The rim bed is continuous and has no holes for nipples. The nipples are inserted over the valve opening and guided with a magnet to the connection point of the rim. This eliminates the need for rim tape, increases the durability of the rim and allows the spokes to be tensioned more, resulting in greater stiffness.

DRSC
Directionated Rim-Spoke Coupling is an exclusive rim-spoke connection system. In this way, the rim, spokes, nipples and hub are matched to each other, and the same tension value is achieved at every point. All critical areas of increased voltage are eliminated.
