The same wheel as the SL5 rear but with a heavier and stronger rim. Great for racing and training. All R series wheels use the same hub and rims but the SL5 wheels use stainless Sapim double butted 2.0X1.5 spoke on the non drive side and 2.0X1.8 on the drive side. No need for special spoke wrenches. The SL's are my most popular model because they combing excellent durability with very low weight.
Shimano 8, 9, or 10 and all current SRAM systems or Campy versions available.
Rim: Deep V 27 mm rim 19 mm wide 480 grams. 24H rear
