Shimano Ultegra R8170 C60 Tubeless CL Disc Front Wheel

Shimano Ultegra R8170 C60 Tubeless CL Disc Front Wheel Born from the quest for unrivalled speed; the Shimano Ultegra R8170 C60 Tubeless CL Disc Front Wheel delivers supreme aerodynamic performance for situations where pace is key. The wheel is tubeless-ready; the rim profile is the same as that found on the highest-end Dura-Ace equivalent and features a contemporary 21mm internal profile to suit modern tyre widths. A 60mm depth makes it ideal for sprinters and TT riders seeking minimal air resistance; with its high levels of rigidity offering a stable platform. Hidden within the hub is an ultra low-friction cup and cone bearing system; which utilises Borozon treated bearing surfaces to keep drag to an absolute minimum. The Labyrinth double-contact sealing reduces water ingress to fight corrosion; making for a durable hub that is designed to stand seasons of use. Wide flange spacing boosts lateral stiffness and bladed straight-pull spokes balance compliance and rigidity to provide a smooth ride.
