Shimano Dura-Ace WH-R9100-C40-TU wheelset
The new Dura-Ace WH-R9100 wheelsets, designed entirely with speed in mind, feature rims with a 37 mm profile height that deliver excellent aerodynamic performance whilst weighing just 1355 grams. The mountain and criterium wheelsets for the pros.
These high-end wheels feature Shimano’s patented rim technology, combining a carbon core with an aluminium rim bed. This technology enables very lightweight wheels with excellent braking performance. Equipped with rims of varying heights – an asymmetrical rim on the rear wheel for high stiffness and high-strength double-thickness stainless steel aero spokes – the Shimano WH-R9100-C40-CL wheelsets offer the perfect race wheels
Shimano Dura-Ace hubs
The Dura Ace wheelsets are, of course, also fitted with Dura Ace R9100 hubs, featuring Shimano’s proven tapered bearing technology with Digital Click adjustment. The Dura Ace hubs are distinguished by the finest materials: stainless steel balls, high-end polished bearing surfaces, angular contact bearings and double labyrinth seals. In addition, the hubs feature a completely new adjustment system, Digital Click, which allows bearing play to be adjusted easily yet with great precision. Unlike industrial bearings, the tapered roller bearings also absorb axial forces exceptionally well, ensuring minimal resistance and high torsional rigidity. The Dura-Ace hubs utilise honed bearing cups and cones. These ensure perfectly smooth running that will bring a smile to the face of any lover of technical perfection. The freehub of the Dura-Ace hubs is made of titanium and is suitable for 8- to 11-speed road bike cassettes.
