Fulcrum Racing Quattro Carbon Wheelset with Grand Prix 4000 S II Tyres & Tubes
Fulcrum Racing Quattro Carbon Wheelset:
The Racing Quattro Carbon incorporates an extremely advanced carbon fibre rim with technology deriving from wheels that come at a much higher price point. The carbon fibre rim allows for less rotational weight and thus increased reactivity in addition to an overall lower weight. Quicker accelerations on both the flats as well as on inclines and less weight to drag up the longer climbs that challenge every rider eventually. Working with carbon fibre allowed the engineers at Fulcrum to develop an aerodynamic shape that reduces drag and allows the athlete to use his energy to propel himself in front of the competition as opposed to fighting against air resistance.
The Racing Quattro Carbon also takes advantage of technology developed for the World Tour athletes that has trickled down upon its braking surface in the form of the 3Diamant treatment which renders its stopping power closer to that of aluminium than that of carbon. All the benefits of a carbon rim with the safety and stopping power of the aluminium rim.

Continental Grand Prix 4000 S II 25mm Tyres:
Continentals flagship Grand Prix 4000 S II Black Chili clincher tyre - widely regarded as one of the best road race tyres available - has been updated and now includes Vectran technology to boost puncture protection.
Vectran is a multi-fibred thermoplastic yarn that as well as being highly resistant to penetration is also very light meaning that you don't need to sacrifice performance to reduce the likelihood of punctures.
The Black Chili rubber compound combines the 3 main attributes of a great tyre; low rolling resistance, good grip and longevity. Continental achieves these seemingly mutually exclusive attributes by adding carbon black nanoparticles to the rubber. The very small size of these particles allows them to conform to imperfections in the road without slowing the tyres down or wearing excessively.
Key Features:
- Our flagship tyre now gets a facelift
- The discreet bead strip allows us to colour coordinate the tyre to match your bike perfectly without losing the BlackChili tread performance
- The proven aspects of the 4000 S II remain unchanged
- Vectran breaker for unsurpassed puncture protection
- Blackchili compound for low rolling resistance and sensational grip
- Handmade in Germany
- Constructed of 3 plies, totalling 330 TPI
Supplied With:
- Racing Quattro Carbon Wheelset
- Pair of Continental Grand Prix 4000 S II 25mm Tyres
- Pair of Continental innertubes
