Shimano Dura Ace 7850 Carbon Laminate Clincher Fr Wheel

Shimano Dura Ace 7850 Carbon Laminate Clincher Fr Wheel: WH7850 CL carbon laminate wheel earns the Dura-Ace pedigree and is designed to complement its 10-speed groupset meeting pro road race criteria. Carbon and alloy laminate clincher rim is both light weight and ridged whilst maintaining high braking performance with standard brake pads. Low rim weight is achieved by reducing the alloy wall thickness from 1.3 mm down to 0.7 mm, then a patent pending phosphoric acid anodizing process is used to bond the carbon fibre to the alloy giving an excellent combination of low weight, strength and rigidity. Added carbon reinforcement is applied around the spoke eyelets for increased durability under high load 16 front stainless steel butted and bladed straight pull spokes Elbow-less spokes make for a strong yet compliant wheel High lateral rigidity is improved with a wide flange spacing Labyrinth double contact sealing - low-friction seals effectively shut out water, mud and dirt without affecting rotational smoothness Borozon treated bearing races - super mirror finish bearing races reduce friction and provide a more precise bearing action Cold forged and machined aluminium hub shell and oversized 7075 alloy axle Supplied with Q/R skewer and wheel bag
