The Shimano Dura-Ace R9270 C50 Carbon Disc Front Wheel is designed to fulfill the needs of competitive road cyclists seeking the ideal balance of aerodynamics, stiffness, and lightweight performance. This high-end carbon wheel, part of Shimano's top-tier Dura-Ace series, is designed for disc brake setups and provides the precision and power transfer required by serious riders to excel in races or personal time trials.
With a 50mm deep carbon rim, this wheel is aerodynamically tuned, allowing you to easily cut through the wind and maintain high speeds on flat stretches and descents. The bladed straight-pull spokes reduce wind resistance, improving overall performance, while the double-butted construction assures optimum stiffness and efficient power transfer to the road. The tubeless-ready design, with a 21mm internal rim width, complements the trend toward wider road tires, often ranging from 25mm to 32mm, which improves rolling resistance, comfort, and grip—particularly when riding tubeless. Whether you're competing on smooth pavement or rougher terrain, this wheel will give you the stability and control you need to perform well.
The Dura-Ace R9270 front wheel is built with a lightweight yet sturdy aluminum hub and axle to provide dependable performance over extended distances while keeping weight to a minimum. The hub has a Center Lock brake disc mount which ensures precise and efficient braking performance in all conditions.
