Product details

The Shimano WH-RS171 wheelset is specifically designed for road cycling and offers a combination of lightness and performance. With a wide 19C rim, it optimizes performance with wider tires, leading to improved stability and control on the road. Compared to its predecessor, the WH-RS170, the WH-RS171 is over 100 g lighter per wheel, contributing to the overall weight reduction of the bike. The rims are made from high-quality aluminum, providing the proven Shimano quality and technology. The set comes with a rim tape but is not tubeless-ready, which should be considered when selecting tires. The wheels are equipped with an axle system that allows for easy installation and removal, and they are compatible with disc brakes featuring Center Lock.

  • 19C wide-profile rim for improved performance with wider tires
  • Over 100 g lighter per wheel compared to the previous model
  • High-quality aluminum construction for durability
  • Compatible with 10-speed and 11-speed Shimano cassettes.
