Product Description
The new Ultegra R8170 C36 wheelset is an upgrade for any road bike. Lightweight and race-ready, the Shimano Ultegra R8170 C36 Tubeless CL Disc Wheelset is designed for cyclists who want to gain precious seconds on their favorite climbs.
With a 36mm rim height, this wheelset is optimized for rapid acceleration and offers superior handling and performance on steep gradients. Constructed using the same carbon mold as the elite Dura-Ace model, these wheels are tubeless-ready, making them compatible with modern tire widths and enhancing both speed and aerodynamic efficiency.
