Product description
Shimano WH-RS700 Wheelset
The Shimano WH-RS700 road bikes offer a lot of racing bike technology in an attractive package for ambitious amateur athletes. Light, rigid and aerodynamic, the Clincher wheelset combines the virtues of an all-round performance wheelset. The aluminium rims feature carbon reinforcement and a striking appearance. They easily match some full carbon rims in terms of weight and stability and, thanks to their aluminium braking flanks, make many competitors look old when it comes to braking. 16 radial spokes on the front wheel ensure ideal concentricity and direct steering. The rear wheel is fitted with 21 OptBal 2:1 spokes, which means that twice as many spokes are used on the drive side as on the less loaded left side. Stiffness and stability should therefore be permanently better. With the hubs and the freewheel you can rely on the best Shimano quality. Polished bearing rings reduce friction to a minimum. The digital click system makes precise bearing adjustment faster and easier. The freewheel is suitable for Shimano 10-speed and 11-speed road bike shifts. Cold forged and milled aluminium hub bodies and oversized 7075 aluminium axles reduce the weight of the wheel to less than 1,800 g.
