I’m the same type of rider, mostly solo rides 1-2 hours, couple times a week. Very happy with my quattro carbons. It took me forever just to remove the 2 warning label stickers, the adhesive residue was extremely stubborn. After that, I decided the rest of the stickers could stay.

Can you guys give my a tip (before I search) what is the best way to remove stickers from Quattros Carbon?


I like the main stickers so haven't removed mine but do intend to remove the orange warning stickers and the little square QR code stickers at some stage.

I would not remove the little silver QR stickers. They are proof of authenticity and may be required in the event of a warranty claim.

It's all downhill from here, except for the uphills.

thank you Sib, those could be on my list. I was just worried about the breaking surface, how long that will last.

Im thinking that my final budget is around 1K if I push it.

Another crazy idea, CAMPAGNOLO BORA ONE 35 CARBON TUBULAR WHEELSET. Can get those for around 1k.

Only question here is, Tubulars. I totally dont mind getting into that if needed. Like to mess around with my bike
and do it all my self. What do you guys think of that.


Other note, I prefer the rear wheel lacing on Fulcrum to Shamal Milles. Call me crazy LOL

Tubulars are out, Im over reaching on this idea.

Another new question to the equation: will the Fulcrum Quattro Carbon look OK with an anodize frame set like the 2016 Caad 12 or a gloss finish pain job?

They will look fine.

Really very good hoops, and not much at all between them and Boras tbh.
