Description

The Wider and Lighter Wheelset for Road, Gravel, and Cyclocross — Shimano RS171

The Shimano RS171 is a robust and reliable wheelset for disc-brake gravel, road, cyclocross, and adventure bikes. The WH-RS171 offers a high level of stiffness and riding stability at the entry-level segment at an accessible price point for all cyclists, without sacrificing technology.

The strong alloy rims have a rim width of 19mm, pairing well with modern, wider tire road bikes. The solid hub technology is equipped with a thru-axle and Center lock disc rotor mount, allowing the security you want during off-camber descents and muddy hairpin turns.

WH-RS171 CX Wheelset Features:

  • Wider and lighter
  • 19C wide-profile rim provides better performance with wider tires
  • More than 100 g lighter than the previous model (WH-RS170)
  • Shimano quality and technology
  • Rigid 12 mm axle for both front and rear
  • E-THRU
  • Reliable disc brake system
  • Center Lock mount

    Sick of TR rims and wanted good ol' fashioned clinchers

    I got sick and tired with wrestling with tires (tubeless ready or not) to fit on TR wheels. I searched and searched for a good set of disc road wheels and found these Shimanos. They are a great bargain for a fairly stiff and not too heavy wheel set. The hubs spin very well! I swear I'm going faster with this new wheel set even though I don't run tubeless anymore. I'd highly recommend this wheelset. I haven't had them long and so cannot speak to durability. My guess is that they will do great.

    Great wheelset for money

    I bought this wheelset to run in winter with studded tires. It�s heavy but can dead true and hubs roll smooth. This is probably the nicest cheapest thru axle wheelset you can get

    As a bonus the cassette and disc mounts align perfectly with my DT Swiss 240 hubs so these can be swapped with zero adjustments

    Best bang for your buck

    I�ve only got a few rides in so far so can�t say much about long-term durability but the Wheelset exceeded my expectations. They feel snappy and roll fast. Thumbs are going up. ??
