FR 1500 Classic Carve out new lines with a wheelset built from components proven in downhill. Turn the nerves you feel at the thought of carving out new lines into a feeling of calm with the new FR 1500 CLASSIC. These wheels inspire confidence. They feature a new rim profile that makes them lighter while improving their resistance to impacts and pinch flats. To cut weight further, the number of spokes in the front wheel has been reduced from 32 to 28, making them more responsive to changes of direction. It's all built around a hub that has already won several World Cup races: the 240.
