Fulcrum Wind 40 DB C19 Wheels

The combination of aerodynamic focus and versatility creates Wind 40 DB. It is natural to emphasize how the 40 mm rim design is the direct descendant of the 55 profile: all solutions developed for the taller profile have been brought here, in a less specialized version.
40 mm therefore, a lightweight rim, created by layering modern unidirectional carbon, wide and with a pronounced nose (8 mm radius): innovative shapes, designed to merge with the tire into a single element capable of eliminating turbulence, avoiding interrupting the airflow that meets the wheel during riding.
But 40 mm also means versatility, because it is generally one of the most appreciated heights by those who don’t want to be unbalanced but want the possibility of having an excellent wheel uphill, stiff and responsive, precise in handling.
The system is completed with aluminum hubs, CNC designed, supporting 24 “straight pull” spokes, ensuring maximum overall stiffness both during acceleration and braking, without influence from the asymmetric forces coming from the disc and cassette sprockets.
Wind 40 DB is definitely the versatile choice, with a strong focus on aerodynamics, to be fast, very fast, uphill, fast, very fast, on flat terrain, and equally fast downhill.
