Fulcrum Racing 500 DB Wheelset

Yes, the Fulcrum Racing 500 DB is 2-Way Fit Ready, meaning it is fully compatible with both tubeless and standard clincher setups. You will just need to ensure you have the appropriate tubeless tape, valves, and sealant installed.

These wheels feature a 17mm internal rim width and are optimized for tires ranging from 25mm up to 50mm. This wide compatibility makes them a versatile choice for everything from fast road tires to wider gravel rubber.

Yes, this wheelset is designed for 12mm bolt-thru axles, which is the standard for most modern disc-brake road and gravel bikes. Please double-check your bike's specific axle spacing to ensure a perfect fit.

The Racing 500 DB is compatible with AFS (Axial Fixing System) or Centerlock disc rotors. This system is widely used and allows for quick, secure installation of your brake discs.

With a 26mm rim depth, these wheels have a relatively low profile, which makes them very stable and predictable in gusty conditions. You won't experience the same 'push' that you might feel with deeper aero wheels, making them excellent for daily training and varied terrain.

The wheelset uses sealed cartridge bearings, which are designed for durability and require very little maintenance compared to cup-and-cone systems. They are built to withstand the demands of daily riding without needing constant attention.
