Aerodynamic race wheelset with 60 mm carbon rims and 12/11-speed compatibility

Description

The Shimano Ultegra WH-R8170-C60-TL Wheelset delivers race-ready aerodynamics at a price point that balances performance and value. Leveraging the same advanced rim profile as Shimano’s flagship Dura-Ace wheels, the R8170-C60 is engineered for high-speed efficiency and cutting through wind with minimal resistance.

Tubeless-Ready All-Carbon Rims: Built for modern road cycling demands, these wheels feature a 60mm deep all-carbon rim with a 21mm internal width optimized for tubeless tires. The tubeless setup reduces rolling resistance and minimizes the risk of flats, making it ideal for competitive and endurance riding alike.

Smooth and Fast Cup-and-Cone Hubs: Both the front and rear wheels are equipped with Shimano’s proven cup-and-cone bearing hubs. This design ensures silky-smooth rotation and efficient power transfer, making every pedal stroke more effective. The result is a wheelset that responds instantly to acceleration and maintains momentum effortlessly.

Dual Compatibility with 11 and 12-Speed Cassettes: One of the key advantages of the WH-R8170-C60-TL is its cross-compatibility with both 11-speed and 12-speed Shimano road cassettes. This means you can upgrade your wheelset without needing to overhaul your entire drivetrain setup, making it ideal for riders seeking long-term flexibility.

Whether you’re racing, training, or tackling fast-paced group rides, the Ultegra R8170 C60 delivers exceptional aerodynamics, lightweight responsiveness and trusted Shimano quality.
