Product Description
The Shimano Ultegra WH-R8170-C50-TL wheelset is built for riders who want a fast, efficient carbon road wheelset with a strong aerodynamic advantage and modern tire support. Sharing its rim profile with DURA-ACE, this set uses a 50mm deep full carbon rim, 21mm internal width, and a hooked tubeless-ready design that works with both tubeless setups and standard clincher tires with tubes.
This wheelset includes front and rear wheels and is built around Shimano’s smooth, serviceable cup-and-cone hub system. The rear hub is compatible with both 11-speed and 12-speed Shimano HG road cassettes, making it a flexible option for modern road and all-road builds.
