Shimano 105 FH-R7000 / Sun CR18 – Front Wheel – Black – 700c

Description

This DIY wheel building  kit is if for bikes with 100 mm front QR dropouts. The black Shimano 105 FH-R7000 front  hub pairs well with the  Sun CR18 rim, and when laced with care using Sapim Race double butted spokes,  a beautiful workhorse of a wheel is the result.

Here’s why we like this wheel:

• It’s designed for those older, beautiful rim brake bikes that the industry has ghosted.
• This is a 36h Build paired with Sapim double butted spokes and the durable CR18 rim. Meaning it can fit wider tires up to 40mm and take a fair amount of abuse.
• The Shimano 105 hub is a reliable choice, with seals and rebuild-able cup and cone bearings that with a little maintenance will still be working for years to come. It has low-friction contact seals, internal O-rings, and an internal grease sleeve to protect against water and dirt.

This kit includes a hub, rim, spokes/nipples and rim tape.

Be sure to order any extra parts / supplies you may need, including tools and  spoke lubricant.
