Road Rim Brake Wheels

New Road Rim Brake Wheels

Road wheels for rim brakes remain an excellent choice for riders looking for a lightweight, responsive and easy-to-maintain bike. At SH Race, we offer new wheelsets designed to improve the efficiency, handling and ride feel of your rim-brake road bike.

Whether you ride in the mountains, on rolling terrain, during long endurance rides or in search of speed on the flat, your choice of wheels has a direct impact on how your bike performs. Weight, rim depth, stiffness, internal width, hubs and spoke build all need to suit your riding style.

Carbon or aluminium rim brake wheels

Carbon rim brake wheels are ideal for riders seeking aerodynamic performance, responsiveness and speed. A mid-depth rim is a versatile choice for mixed terrain, while a deeper profile helps maintain speed on fast and flatter roads.

Aluminium road wheels remain a reliable, accessible and efficient option. They are particularly well suited to training, long-distance riding, year-round use and riders looking for a robust, dependable wheelset.

Choosing the right rim depth

• Shallow rims prioritise low weight, agility and fast acceleration. They are especially suitable for climbing and demanding terrain.

• Mid-depth rims provide an excellent balance of aerodynamics, versatility and everyday comfort.

• Deep-section rims are designed for speed, flatter terrain, triathlon or riders looking to maximise aerodynamic benefit.

Wheels matched to your bike and riding style

Before choosing a road rim brake wheelset, check compatibility with your drivetrain, cassette, tyres and the available clearance on your frame. Rim profile, external width, tyre or tubeless setup depending on the model, and braking performance should also be considered.

SH Race can help you select a wheelset that suits your level, weight, usual terrain and objectives: climbing more efficiently, accelerating faster, riding further or gaining speed on the flat.

The SH Race standard

Our wheels are designed to provide a reliable, balanced and durable build. Each wheelset is made for cyclists who want a high-performance solution for their rim-brake road bike, without compromising on build quality or expert advice.
