Fulcrum 2-way fit Zero or 1?
I'm looking for another set of wheels. I was looking at getting some Fulcrums and found that they make 2 models that you can run tubeless clinchers on, which is pretty intriguing to me. I'm curious if anyone on the forum has owned a set of the Zero or 1 Racing 2-Way wheels. I'd like to hear your feedback on those specifically but even on any Fulcrum products in general. Thanks!

I've owned a pair of Fulcrum Zeros for a couple of years. I've had no problems at all, just as I expect from Campy products. If you do have problems, the spokes are pricey and might be hard to get. The wheels aren't worth anything close to $1200 either. I paid $900 on E-bay and they're no bargain at that price either, but they sure add some bling to my bike.
As for the 2-way fit, there aren't many tubeless tire models yet. Until I see them from Conti or Michelin, I'll pass.

I had the all red zeros of the generation prior to the the 2-way fit model. Bad-ass looking wheels with minimal weight, smooth campy bearings and excellent stiffness. Great wheels that I love to ride and I'm always recommending them to others!
Also note the only real gain of the zero over the 1 is the aesthetics. It has the carbon shell at the hubs, and the anodized red spokes. The weight difference is negligible in my opinion as my wheels came in a touch overweight, yet two sets of 1's that passed through our shop were 2 or 4 grams lighter than the claimed weight.
