Smooth, cutting, with a sharp design made to endure the tough grind of the road, FIR wheels\u00a0are proud Italian production at its finest.Since the Arrigioni brothers founded FIR, or Fabbrica Italiana Ruote, in 1956, the brand has used style, science, and a gracious appreciation for user feedback to become a key player in the bicycle tire market.<\/p>\n
They use professional cyclists as test subjects for their new products. This practice set the company ahead of the curve in quality, and in 1980, Fabbrica Italiana Ruote introduced the world\u2019s first wheels manufactured from carbon. From then on, FIR has played an integral part in many cyclists\u2019 successes, propelling Stephen Roche to his 1987 Triple Crown victory, through the Tour de France, the Giro d\u2019Italia and the World Road Race championship.<\/p>\n
FIR is now a staple tire of the bicycle racing establishment.Thanks to FIR tire designer, Matteo Nuzzi, the company has been able to roll out a new line of tires that successfully balances the beauty of design with the need for technical flawlessness. FIR\u2019s main focus is road and mountain-bike use, and its emphasis is on outstanding performance derived from a perfection in materials, design and performance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
