Shimano WH-R501 A Clincher Wheelset
Shimano's budget-friendly wheelset offering impressive level of performance combined with a superb new look.
The Shimano R501 wheelset features a 24mm rim depth that's strong and aerodynamic without weighing you down, and a built-in wear indicator lets you know when it's time for a replacement. Traditional stainless steel straight gauge spokes with 20/24 front/rear, laced radially and 3x respectively for a great combination of strength, stiffness and style.
The hub design uses trickle down technology from Shimano's high-end groups with a heavy-duty steel axle and ball bearings for easy serviceability. A new seal system delivers reliable all-conditions performance, and sets this model apart from its predecessor, the R500.
700c (15-622mm ISO). Shimano/SRAM 8/9/10 speed compatible.
