SHIMANO Ultegra wheelset 28 "WH-R8170 C60 Center Lock Tubeless | thru axle

Shimano also succeeded in further improving the optimal interplay of stiffness, aerodynamics and low weight with the wheels of the 8100 Ultegra generation. The individual components were carefully examined and clearly optimized at critical points. This means that you always have the best and fastest material on your bike.

The rims are made entirely of carbon. Not only does your heart delight when you look at the scales, when you accelerate quickly, you immediately convert your energy into propulsion. Nothing is given away. The new shape reduces air resistance and thus enables higher speeds with less effort.
To improve puncture protection, you can convert to tubeless tires and increase driving comfort due to the lower air pressures.

In addition to the stylish design, the slim hubs also impress with their high storage quality and perfect sealing. These ensure smooth running and a long service life. They are also adjustable and easy to maintain if necessary.
The freewheel body is 12-speed Shimano Road cassettes, so that the use of older component groups is also interesting and possible.

Due to the height of the rim of 60 mm, this wheelset feels particularly comfortable in the fight against the clock, especially at high speeds.
