Description The WH-RS80-C50 wheelset delivers high performance features at a price that's a bit easier on the wallet compared to its Dura-Ave counter part.
Like the Dura-Ace wheel the C50 rim construction uses a light alloy core with a bonded carbon exterior for an amazingly stiff and lightweight ride. 50mm deep carbon profile offers substantial aerodynamic advantages without adding weight, and the machined aluminum sidewall surface offers reliable braking performance without the need for carbon specific pads.
Overall quality and affordability are effectively balanced thanks Shimano's respected Ultegra hubs, which feature serviceable angular contact bearings and wide hub flanges just like the DA models.
Additional features:
Front: 16 spokes raced radially
Rear: 20 spokes laced 2x
Stainless double butted and bladed straight pull spokes
Includes Shimano quick release skewers, valve extensions, spoke wrenches, and wheel magnet 1831g per wheelset (weighed without skewers)
