Campagnolo Fulcrum Speed

No, you do not. The Fulcrum Speed wheels feature a proprietary 2-Way Fit construction that seals the rim bed entirely, eliminating the need for rim tape and simplifying your tubeless setup.

These wheels utilize a hooked rim bead, which offers excellent compatibility with a wide range of clincher and tubeless tires, giving you more flexibility in your tire choice compared to hookless-only rims.

The 42mm depth is a versatile 'all-rounder' profile. While it provides a noticeable aerodynamic benefit, it is shallow enough to remain stable and predictable in gusty conditions, making it a great choice for daily riding.

The Ultra Smooth Bearings (USB) system uses ceramic balls and hardened steel races to significantly reduce friction and wear. You will notice a smoother, more efficient spin that requires less maintenance over the long term compared to traditional steel bearings.

Yes, these wheels are designed with a focus on ride quality and compliance. The carbon layup and rim profile are engineered to absorb road vibration, making them an excellent choice for long rides on less-than-perfect pavement.

This lacing pattern doubles the number of spokes on the drive side of the rear wheel. It balances the torsional forces applied during pedaling, resulting in better power transfer and increased stiffness without adding unnecessary weight.
