Designed for cycling enthusiasts, the Shimano Ultegra R8170-C36 front wheel is an excellent choice for those seeking performance and reliability. This wheel features a disc brake system that provides enhanced braking power in all weather conditions. The Centerlock technology allows for quick installation and secure attachment of the brake disc.
