D2 Aero Profile Rim Technology:

The D2 aerodynamic profile rim has been designed to optimize performance in real driving conditions. Through extensive testing in wind tunnels and on the road, Shimano has developed a profile that reduces air friction and increases lateral stiffness and vertical absorption. This offers greater control, comfort and durability on the road, making the Ultegra WH-R8170 C50 TL an excellent choice for cyclists looking for high, reliable performance.
