The GR project has grown out of an in-depth analysis of race data
and direct experiences from high-level gravel races.

The objective was clear: to create a wheel able to support high speeds over rough terrain, whilst maintaining control, precision and a concrete aerodynamic advantage.

The heart of the project is the new 2-Wave Rim with an inner rim width of 30 mm, and mini-hook, designed to work in perfect synergy with wide tyres, optimising their shape, contact patch and stability. The variable wave profile, with a height of 47/52 mm, improves air flow management and reduces the yaw moment and frontal drag.

The wheel-tyre system has been developed to work in perfect synergy with 47-50 mm wide tyres, which have not only become standard in today’s fastest gravel races but are also the ideal solution for every day rides, where control, efficiency and comfort make the difference. Naturally, wider tyres can also be used, in compliance with the applicable ISO standard.

Specific 45 mm tyres, that in certain contexts have revealed themselves to be technically valid and to perform very well, are also compatible. This combination, which is not currently covered by the ISO standard, has been validated by Fulcrum for certain tyres, following rigorous compatibility tests performed in-house and by tyre manufacturers.

The complete list of 45 mm tyres validated by Fulcrum is constantly growing and can be found at fulcrumwheels.com

The combination between the 30 mm inner rim and the new-generation of wider gravel tyres, opens new pressure management possibilities. The larger air volume of the system allows for a wider adjustment range, to optimize the setup and find the best balance between speed, control and stability in relation to terrain, conditions and riding style.
It is fundamental, however, not to exceed the maximum pressure indicated on the rim (3.5 bar).

The Sharq GR represents the maximum expression of Fulcrum’s performance for gravel races: FF100 carbon fibre, hubs with Cup & Cone bearings, flat profile A3RO spokes and 2:1 lacing pattern, for maximum reaction, precision and aerodynamic advantage. Total weight of the system: 1.550 g.
