Racing 800 Disc Brake Wheelset

The Fulcrum Racing 800 Disc Brake Wheelset brings Italian engineering to India's demanding road conditions at a price point that makes competitive performance accessible. With aluminium rims built for disc braking and a proven hub platform, this wheelset handles everything from Chennai coastal rides to Pune's Tamhini Ghat climbs. Free delivery above Rs. 2,500 and cash on delivery make upgrading your wheels straightforward.

Our Take

The Racing 800 Disc strikes a smart balance for Indian riders seeking durability without excessive weight. The aluminium rim construction handles monsoon braking and potholed tarmac better than carbon at this price point, while disc-specific architecture ensures consistent stopping power through Mumbai's humid months and Bangalore's unpredictable downpours. We rank this wheelset highly for riders upgrading from stock wheels who want year-round reliability on varied Indian road surfaces without the carbon premium.

Sizing for Indian Riders

This wheelset fits standard 700c road frames with disc brake mounts (flat mount or post mount adaptable). Check your frame's axle standard—most modern bikes use 12mm thru-axles front and rear, though some older models run QR. Tyre clearance works well with 25-32mm widths, ideal for Indian roads where slightly wider rubber (28-30mm) provides puncture protection on rougher surfaces without sacrificing speed.

Compatibility Notes

Compatible with Shimano/SRAM 11-speed and 12-speed cassettes (with spacer for 11-speed). Centerlock rotor interface means you'll need Centerlock-compatible rotors—160mm or 140mm depending on your frame and riding style. Use Shimano-approved rotor lockrings and torque to spec. Clean rims with isopropyl alcohol; avoid rim-specific lubricants that can migrate to braking surfaces.

Pairs Well With

Match these wheels with Continental Grand Prix 5000 or Vittoria Corsa tyres in 28mm for optimal Indian road performance. Add Shimano RT-MT800 Ice Tech rotors for improved heat dissipation during long Western Ghats descents. Consider upgrading to sealed ceramic bearings for monsoon longevity. Pair with a quality floor pump and tubeless conversion kit to run lower pressures on uneven tarmac.
