New cutting edge cross country wheel from Fulcrum as used by Julien Absalon the 2007 cross country World Champion.
The Fulcrum Wheels project originates from the revolutionary ideas of a group of young aerospace engineers sharing a hearfelt passion from bicycles. These, after analyzing the projects offered by the market, realized that there was ample room for improvement. Which is why they decided to resort to their knowledge of aeronautics to design a new range of specialized wheels. In next to no time the project was transformed into a prototype model that gave excellent results when tested, results well above those of rival products. Our team couldn't have been more pleased. So they chose the best materials and the most advanced technologies available and generated the first three models.
