The Fulcrum Sharq 57 Disc Brake Wheelset is the natural evolution of the wheel that redefined all-road performance. Sitting at the very top of Fulcrum’s all-road category, Sharq 57 delivers aerodynamic efficiency, precision handling and dependable control across road and gravel routes – all in a lightweight 1520g package.

Building on the success of the Sharq 42, this higher-profile version offers increased aerodynamic performance while maintaining impressive stability, comfort and low rolling resistance.

Aerodynamic All-Road Performance

The Sharq 57 features an optimised aerodynamic rim profile designed to deliver higher cruising speeds while retaining composure in crosswinds. The variable 57–62mm depth balances aerodynamic gains with improved ride feel, making it more forgiving than traditional high-profile road wheels. Its 25mm internal width provides excellent tyre support, improving rolling resistance, grip and comfort on both smooth tarmac and rougher surfaces.

Advanced Carbon Construction

Built from Fulcrum’s premium FF100 full carbon, the Sharq 57 combines stiffness, strength and light weight. The non-drilled rim bed is tubeless-native, eliminating the need for rim tape and enhancing reliability.

The mini-hook rim design ensures secure tyre seating at a wide range of pressures, delivering safety and confidence for road and gravel riding alike.

Precision Hubs & Ceramic Bearings

High-quality aluminium hubs paired with Fulcrum’s USB ceramic bearings provide ultra-smooth rolling performance and long-lasting durability. The adjustable cup-and-cone system ensures easy servicing and consistent performance over time.

The Centre Lock disc interface delivers powerful, reliable braking in all weather conditions.
