New from Fulcrum the amazing RRS chainset gives you carbon technology CULT ceramic bearings and hardox chainrings - the ultimate upgrade for your 10 speed Shimano/SRAM or Campagnolo groupset.
On the wave of success obtained by the Racing Torq R and Racing Torq RS models, this years range is enriched by the Racing Torq RRS which uses innovative CULT ceramic technology. The Ultra Torque axle assembly is inside the bottom bracket shell in order to reduce lateral bulk. Its life over time is increased by the new anodization treatment which also comes with a darker and more aggressive colour. Compatibility with the most common drivetrains is ensured.
There are no compromises in the new top of the range crankset in the Fulcrum series. The use of CULT technology and of the High Efficiency Hard-Ox anodization treatment for the chainrings make this model suitable for the toughest and most extreme competitive use. Weight is kept low thanks to Hollow Crank Technology.
Only compatible with the new racing torq outboard RRS BB cups
Your chainset must fit onto your bottom bracket! There are currently four chainset/bottom bracket interfaces that you're likely to come across. If your bottom bracket is made by Shimano and it has splines, then you need an Octalink chainset. If your b/b is NOT made by Shimano and it has splines, it's almost certainly ISIS. There are a very few non-Shimano chainsets with Shimano Octalink interfaces so, to be sure, count the splines - ISIS has 9, Octalink has (surprise, surprise) 8. No matter which brand of b/b you have, if it has a square interface, it will require a traditional square taper chainset. If you have one of the new Hollowtech II systems, you will need to choose the exact chainset that matches your bottom bracket. Most MTB chainsets are now 9-speed compatible but these will work with an 8-speed system.
There is a huge Italian tradition of cycle engineering excellence and Fulcrum was born from the very heart of it. Competition testing with world level athletes and the expertise Fulcrum's engineers possess means Fulcrum have become known for developing unsurpassed products with excellent performance, durability and market leading innovation. Key technologies pioneered by Fulcrum include 2:1 Two-to-One™ Spoke Ratio, which delivers incredible power transfer by doubling the spokes on the critical drive side of the wheels so no energy is wasted. Fulcrum has also focused on class leading rolling resistance through their CULT and USB Bearing Technologies which use ceramic bearings and cutting edge surface technology to massively reduce friction. CULT ball bearings are 9 times smoother than wheels with traditional bearings. All this innovation and technology has produced amazing results for everyday riders and pros alike with 4 world champions in just 6 years, Boonen, Bettini (x2) and Ballan.

Fulcrum is a division of Campagnolo, and the range-heading Racing Torq RRS bears a close resemblance to the Campagnolo Record crankset, but with a subtly different moulding shape to the spider.
The stiff hollow crank arms use unidirectional and multidirectional carbon fibre for strength and lightness, and the same smooth-running hybrid ceramic bearings (ceramic balls and steel race) used in the Record cranks.
The chainrings have an aluminium oxide 'Hard-OX' layer (also used in cutting tools) which has a slippery surface that helps the chain shift from small to large rings. It also cuts down on noise.
