Shimano Ultegra R8170 C60 Tubeless CL Disc Wheelset

Shimano Ultegra R8170 C60 Tubeless CL Disc Wheelset

With a tall depth of 60mm, the Shimano Ultegra R8170 C60 Tubeless CL Disc Wheelset delivers high-end aerodynamic performance on the flats to see you destroy PBs and shave off seconds on race day. Through the use of the same carbon mould as the top-shelf Dura-Ace equivalent, the tubeless-ready rims feature a wide 21mm internal width that marries well with modern tyres. Stiff and lightweight, these rims deliver unrivalled efficiency, while the freehub uses direct engagement interlocking faces for rapid acceleration. 

For lasting performance, Labyrinth double-contact sealing provides premium protection from the elements, limiting water and dirt ingress to prevent corrosion. A Borozon coating on the bearing races minimises friction, while the hub’s wide flange spacing enhances lateral stiffness.
