The Shimano RS710 C32 disc-brake wheelset, along with the deeper-section C46, is the Japanese brand’s most affordable carbon, road wheelset ever. Drawing on their experience in producing the more premium Dura-Ace and Ultegra lines, Shimano have crafted a wheelset that balances aerodynamic advantage, with weight and overall rigidity. A Wheelset for Mountains Weighing a respectable 1,511g for the set, the Shimano RS710 C32 is perfect for those big days spent cycling in the mountains. Although there might be lighter wheels on the market—though perhaps not this price point—you certainly won’t feel weighed down by these hoops. With a lighter wheel you’ll feel the zip when you put down the power, getting you up to speed in no time. Whether you need a quick burst of acceleration to crest a sharp hill or to see off a potentially race-losing attack, the RS710 C32s won’t leave you watching the peloton motor on without you. Wider Rims, Better Braking Boasting a wider rim profile than any other Shimano wheel at this level, you’ll be able to fit a wider and tubeless tyre; the benefit of this being you can run the tyre at a lower pressure. It’s widely accepted now that, contrary to past beliefs, running a wider tyre at lower pressure reduces rolling resistance, which in turn increases speed for a given power. Furthermore, a wider tyre will work more effectively with a wider rim in terms of aerodynamic performance, again offering you more speed for less effort. The Shimano RS710 C32 is engineered for hydraulic disc-brakes, meaning you’ll benefit from the stopping power offered by this braking system. The advantages of discs over rim brakes have now been widely accepted: you’ll have consistent performance in the wet, you won’t have to fear overheating your rims on long and/or steep descents, and you won’t be concerned about your expensive rims eroding away every time you break. Lastly, for the mechanically minded, Shimano have stuck with their tried-and-tested cup-and-cone bearings in the hubs. This is similar to the used on many of the brand’s hubs, which are highly regarded for their reliability and simplicity. So if it’s a carbon wheelset that’s relatively light, reliable, and offers top performance look no further than the Shimano RS710 C32.

Shimano’s 105 R7000 series might be the brand’s entry point to performance cycling, but, thanks to trickle-down technology from the premium ranges of Dura-Ace and Ultegra, it certainly isn’t sub-standard. Despite the lower price tag for these 105 shifters, you can still be assured of excellent stopping power and smooth gear changes. Whether it’s for the daily commute or your local road race, you’ll get reliable shifting performance every time. Shift Into Gear For this edition, the Japanese component makers have re-vamped the internal shifting unit to give smoother shifting than ever. The Dual Control Levers offers intuitive and quick shifting up/down the cassette, as well as excellent braking performance. Equally, changing between rings in the front is light, especially when paired with Shimano’s FD-R7000 front derailleur. So whether you’re changing-up gears for the decisive, race-winning sprint; or slamming on the brakes while descending Alpine climbs look no further. Braking Excellence As with all Shimano products, these are chocked full proprietary technology. Stopping power has been boosted for the R7000 range of shifters, thanks to SLR-EV. SLR-EV is a short-arm brake system, which employs two bearings and roller to offer increased efficiency, modulation, and stopping power. Three things that you can’t really get enough of when it comes to bike shifters. Combined with the BC-9000 brake cable and Shimano claims it will deliver 36% more braking power than the previous model. Ergonomics In Mind The shape of the shifters has been re-vamped and brought into line with the slimmer, more streamlined Ultegra R8000 series. Further attention has been paid to the ergonomics by increasing the reach adjustment to 15mm, offering more range for those with smaller hands. This attention to ergonomics should offer greater comfort on those longer rides. Features: Mechanical braking system, dual control lever Redesigned internal shifting unit Greater reach adjust range Easier access to inner shift cable
