Buy with CONFIDENCE from an Fulcrum authorized dealer About Product:The combination of attention to aerodynamics and versatility creates Wind 40 DB. It's natural to point out that the design of the 40 mm rim is the direct descendant of the 55 profile: all the solutions developed for the higher profile have been included here, in a less specialised version. So 40 mm, a light rim, created by the superposition of wide, modern unidirectional layers, with a pronounced profile (8 mm radius): innovative shapes, designed to blend with the tyre in a single element capable of eliminating turbulence, avoiding interrupting the flow of air that meets the wheel during the race. But 40 mm also means versatility, because it is generally one of the sizes most appreciated by those who do not want to overdo things, but want an excellent wheel uphill, stiff and snappy, precise when riding. The system is completed with aluminium hubs, designed at the CNC, which support 24 "straight pull" spokes, guaranteeing maximum overall rigidity, both in acceleration and when braking, without influences due to the asymmetric nature of the forces coming from the disc and cogset. Wind 40 DB is certainly the multi-purpose choice, with a strong focus on aerodynamics, to be fast, very fast, uphill, fast, very fast, on the flat, and just as much so downhill.2-WAY FIT™2-Way Fit™ profile for tubeless and clincher. Tubeless technology was first used by the auto industry , then by motorcycles and now has reached the cycling industry. After its debut with mountain bikes the moment has come to “put it on the road”, and that’s what we propose to do. We have developed our 2-Way Fit™ technology to ensure the perfect compatibility of our tubeless rims with normal clincher types and tubes. 2-Way Fit™road bike wheels are perfectly multipurpose for tackling every situation. Thanks to a special impression in the valve area, the tubes are fitted with the maximum precision while keeping the tube perfectly stable inside the tyre. Housing the valve for tubeless tyres is also risk-free, with the unquestionable advantage that there are never any air infiltrations caused by non-ideal positioning when fitting.RDB™ RIM DYNAMIC BALANCEThe concept is simple and elegant: balance the weight of the gasket, with an item of similar weight placed on the exact opposite side.DRSC™ - DIRECTIONATED RIM-SPOKE COUPLINGExclusive rim/spoke coupling system. It allows the rim, spokes, nipples and hub to align properly with the same tensioning value in all areas.MOMAG™What is MoMag™? A magnet and lots of ingenuity. This was what led to the patent for the well-tested “Mounting Magnet” system, or MoMag™.TRACEABILITYA guarantee of quality The keyword for our products is: traceable. If you find a little label attached to any Fulcrum® product, do not remove it. It will provide you a guarantee in case of an ascertained defectiveness of a production batch, and so the component needed or wheel will be traceable. All this because, devoted to its mission, Fulcrum® demands the absolute perfection and safety for its customers.RIM FULL CARBON TECHNOLOGYFull carbon Fulcrum® rims are built using combinations, developed in the laboratory, of different types of fibre, including UD and the famous 90-degree 3K of models at the top of our range. To build them we developed a special HTG (high transition grade) resin, whose glass transition point is at a higher temperature than any other fibre used in the bicycle industry. This gives incomparable performance when braking.WIDE RIM TECHFulcrum®’s R&D department, following requests from the competition circuit, has worked to create rims that are wider than before, about 4 mm or more than previously. This technical choice provides an ideal basis for 25/28mm tyres, the sizes currently popular. This ensures stability, excellent handling and superior comfort.UNDRILLED RIM BEDNo holes on the bridge connector means that the rim is uniform at every point, free from critical areas subject to stress. The advantages are immediately clear: less weight, longer lasting rims, greater resistance to fatigue, the possibility of giving the spokes more tension and more stiffness which, in terms of performance, means improved responsiveness and acceleration.TYRE TYPE 2-Way fit (for clincher and tubeless)TYRE SIZE 28"DISCIPLINE Road / TriathlonASTM CATEGORY 2WEIGHT 1620 gRIM MATERIAL CarbonRIM MATERIAL DETAILS Full carbon, "UD" - carbon fiber finishingPROFILE HEIGHT MediumRIM HEIGHT Front and rear: 40 mmRIM WIDTH 27 mmINNER RIM WIDTH (CHANNEL) 19 mmTYRE WIDTH From 23 mm to 50 mmBRAKING SYSTEM Disc brakeBRAKING SURFACE/BRAKES OPTIONS AFSFRONT AXLE COMPATIBILITY HH12-100REAR AXLE COMPATIBILITY HH12-142FRONT WHEEL SPOKES 24 (16 left - 8 right)REAR WHEEL SPOKES 24 (8 left - 16 right)SPOKES: MATERIAL Stainless steel, double buttedSPOKES: PROFILE Rounded, straight pullNIPPLES AluminumFRONT HUB Aluminum, Aluminum flangesREAR HUB Aluminum, Aluminum flangesBEARINGS Sealed cartridge bearingsOTHERS Aluminum AxleWEIGHT LIMIT 109 kg (Cyclist)FWB OPTIONS HG11, Campy, XDr ABOUT USClaude Laforest started in 2004 as a hobby selling overstock from local bike shops.
