Fulcrum Red Zone Carbon + 29" Boost MTB Wheelset
Welcoming the world of “Plus”: the Latest Fulcrum Evolution in MTB Wheel Technology.
Fulcrum’s flagship wheelset for XC and Marathon racing has evolved with the feedback of elite riders. The Red Zone Carbon+ are the result of analyses and specific tests aimed at raising the performance of the Red Zone Carbon to the next level.
This process involved the riders of the Buff-Megamo team who, along with other riders, tested different configurations for a year in race conditions, to find the perfect balance and the maximum performance possible.
The optimal configuration was reached just before the 2023 Cape Epic, with a wheel weighing 1,385 grams, thanks to the use of a mix of resins and FF100 unidirectional high modulus fibres, produced to Fulcrum’s specifications, that maintains and improves all the structural characteristics and implements all of Fulcrum’s best technologies. The Red Zone Carbon+ have improved the handling and reactivity by, respectively, +9.5% and +10%, compared to the Red Zone Carbon.
The iconic and unique shape of the Red Zone Carbon NIP(PLE) FORCE rim has not changed and the MoMag and DSRC (Directional Rim-Spoke Coupling) technologies have also been included. The bearings are always in the cup and cone configuration, but they have been improved with USB™ (Ceramic Ultra Smooth Bearings) ceramic bearings, which increase the smoothness of the wheels and reduce both weight and maintenance. Comparative tests have revealed that USB™ bearings are 50% smoother than sealed bearings.
