Product details

The Shimano WH-RS171 wheelset is specifically designed for road bikes, offering a combination of lightness and performance. With a rim height of 19 mm and a width of 24.6 mm, this wheelset is ideal for use with wider tires, enhancing ride stability and comfort. Compared to its predecessor, the WH-RS170, the WH-RS171 is over 100 g lighter, improving the overall performance of the bike. The use of high-quality aluminum ensures durability and reliability, while compatibility with disc brakes and the Center Lock system allows for easy installation and maintenance. The wheelset comes with a rim tape but is not tubeless-ready, which should be considered when selecting tires.

  • Lightweight design with over 100 g weight reduction compared to the previous model
  • 19C wide-profile rim for improved performance with wider tires
  • Compatible with disc brakes and Center Lock system
  • Made from high-quality aluminum for durability and reliability.
