Description

Description

Fulcrum Racing 6 C17 wheels were already available in disc brake form, but now there’s a rim brake version. Quality-wise it’s somewhere between the Racing 7 and Racing 5. Thanks to the high flange in the rear wheel, it reacts immediately to acceleration after a turn or when sprinting. The use of straight pull spokes greatly decreases the likelihood of spokes breaking. This is why the Fulcrum Racing 6 C17 make a reliable wheel set to cycle kilometers on end.

Compatibility

• To be used with Shimano and/or SRAM 9/10/11 speed groupsets.

Delivery includes

• Fulcrum Racing 6 wheels
• 9/10-speed spacer
• Rim tape
• Quick-release Skewers (front and rear)

Assembly

• Cassette remover Shimano or Campagnolo
• (possibly a torque wrench)

Installing a cassette on a wheel is easy if you have the right tools. If you purchase a cassette remover with a Shimano fit, you will be able to mount either a Shimano or Sram cassette on your rear wheel. Please note! For a Campagnolo cassette you need the Campagnolo tool. If you have a Shimano 9/10-speed cassette, first slide the spacer over the body. Then you place the cassette on the body. This can only be done in one way because of the fit of the body. Finally you turn the washer straight on by hand and tighten it with the cassette tool. Cassettes aren’t easily overtightened, but if you want you can use a torque wrench for this.

User tips

• Pay attention to the direction of travel when mounting your tyres
• For Shimano 9/10-speed, do not forget to mount the spacer first before installing the cassette
• Make sure the rim tape is stuck well in the rim
• On both the front and rear wheel, there is a small adjustment screw on the left-hand side to adjust the side play

My previous wheels were Racing 7 type and 11 years old. They were not really nice and straight anymore. Hence replaced. I have only cycled 55 km with the new set. So can't say much about it. Rim is nice and straight. Looks nice. I am used to 23 mm tyres. These wheels require minimum 25 mm tyres. Because of the slightly lower pressure, the ride feels a lot more comfortable(softer). While riding, I did not hear any rattling from the body in neutral.

Pros & Cons

Accelerates well
Looks nice
No rattling body
Comes perhaps with time :-)
