Shimano WH-R9170-C40 Clincher Wheelset
The Shimano WH-R9170-C40 Clincher Wheelset receives minor tweaks and improvements on this already reliable line of wheels. It features improved drive rigidity and responsive acceleration thanks to its offset rim and wide flange hubs. The C-40 weighs in at a respectable 1527g, with an semi-aero design that makes this wheelset an all rounder that can take on just anything you throw at it. Shimano’s lust-worthy 9170 series hubs boast a buttery smooth spin quality based on Shimano’s cup and cone design. The cup and cone ball-bearing design is easy to maintain and offers some the best road hub performance around.The The D2 rim has been given a new improved aero profile in the 40mm version to help negate the effects of crosswinds and keep your rolling straight toward the finish line. Descend with confidence knowing that these wheels offer superior braking performance thanks to the Centerlock disc brake system.
