Shimano America XTR WH-M975 XC Racing Wheel
Shimano America XTR WH-M975 XC Racing Wheel
Ohhh mommy. The tubeless, disc-specific Shimano XTR M975 Wheelset is scandalously light, super stiff, and looks supremely sexy blazing across the finish line of a cross-country racecourse. Anodized Scandium allows the rim walls to get fashion-model thin without sacrificing strength, and the titanium rear freehub body plays a similar role in the XTR Wheelset's 1525-gram weight. Centerlock disc rotor mounts provide a quick-changing system that's also extremely responsive due to the many points of contact. Shimano even tosses in a bit of XTR jewelry by including quick-release skewers with every wheelset package.
Bottom Line: Don't blame your lack of XC domination on your XTR wheels, or they might race without you.
Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.
What is the designation of the build? It looks like cross 3....
What is the designation of the build? It looks like cross 3. Lacing? The build and lacing should be included in the description of ALL wheelsets.
