From the fastest sprints and hardest climbs of the WorldTour to the everyday riding experience close to home, SHIMANO's lineup of road wheels delivers high-end performance to take you farther, faster, or higher on any ride. Developed with over 100 years of engineering expertise and experience, the newest models of 11- and 12-speed road wheelsets are organized into three tiers with features to suit every road rider.

DURA-ACE R9270 – For ultimate performance and exceptional reliability, the DURA-ACE carbon wheels sacrifice nothing when it comes to absolute speed, acceleration, and premium materials. Compatible with 12-speed drivetrains.

ULTEGRA R8170 – For a balance of trickledown high-performance technology and refined design, built for the discerning enthusiast. 11- and 12-speed compatibility.

SHIMANO RS710 (SHIMANO 105-level) - For the ideal blend of performance, reliability, and value. 11- and 12-speed compatibility.

SHIMANO completely redesigned its performance road wheel lineup to blend exceptional rigidity, faster aerodynamics, and lower weights than ever before. Below are some key features that make SHIMANO wheels the unrivaled choice for road riders of all types.

C36 and C32 – These low-profile wheels feature the lowest rotating weight and maximum inertia. They are ideal for riders who live for maximum acceleration and responsiveness, whether up steep ramps on long climbs, punchy attacks on flat, windy circuits, or snappy sprints for finish lines and town signs.

C50 and C46 – For an all-around mix of aerodynamics and reduced rotational weight, these medium-profile wheels are for riders seeking the perfect blend of acceleration and aerodynamics. The C50 and C46 wheels are the best all-around rim depth ready to tackle any terrain, pace, and wind direction.

C60 – The ultimate aerodynamic advantage for riders seeking advantages in breakaways, time trials, and long solo efforts. The C60 wheels are tailor-made to maximize efficiency and slip through the wind while providing maximum lateral rigidity for the most powerful sprinters.

SHIMANO's new performance road wheels feature a full carbon construction. Carbon allows for the best blend of lightweight strength, aerodynamic rim shape, and lateral stiffness. All new wheelsets for DURA-ACE, ULTEGRA, and RS710 feature premium carbon technology, but each tier differs slightly in the material, layup, resin, and finishing.

SHIMANO’s new carbon rims all feature a modern 21 mm internal rim width to maximize aerodynamic efficiency in front and crosswinds. This also allows a larger contact patch for today's wider standard tires (25, 28, and 30c), which provides maximum grip and ride comfort. All DURA-ACE, ULTEGRA, and RS710 wheels feature the same precision-engineered design, just made from different layups.

DURA-ACE R9270 Wheels – 12-Speed Only – In the pursuit of ultimate performance, SHIMANO designed the DURA-ACE R9270 freehub with new DIRECT ENGAGEMENT technology that provides increased driving rigidity for a more direct pedaling feeling, especially when accelerating. The lightweight, aluminum DURA-ACE freehub also features a new spline design that helps prevent damage and gouging of splines over time. The new DURA-ACE freehub is only compatible with 12-speed cassettes.

New SHIMANO ULTEGRA R8170 and SHIMANO 105-level RS710 Carbon Wheels feature rear freehubs that are compatible with both SHIMANO 11- and 12-speed cassette

SHIMANO's toolless front and rear thru axle technology allows for maximum lateral rigidity while maintaining ease of removal and installation for quicker, more straightforward wheel changes and repairs on the road. All road wheels are 12 mm standard front and rear.

All of SHIMANO’s new performance road wheels roll out of the factory tubeless-ready, with tape and valve stems preinstalled from the moment they're pulled out of the box.

They also come stock with Center Lock mounts, which secure the disc brake rotor to the hub with a single lock ring instead of multiple small loose bolts. These rotors are engineered to work seamlessly with SHIMANO wheels and brakes with peak performance when all are used as a system.

Start with the series that best fits your needs and riding style, and then fine-tune from there with the preferred depth for your riding style. With tubeless compatibility right out of the box, these new SHIMANO wheelsets will have you rolling on fresh hoops in no time.
