The Pacenti SL23 Rim

Below is an image of how the Pacenti SL23 stacks up to the leading competition.

I personally ride a set of Pacenti SL23′s with Sapim CX-Ray spokes and they are by far my favorite wheelset. Fast, stiff and extremely durable. I use them on the road, gravel and cyclocross. They are tubeless ready But I do not currently run them tubeless because I change out the tires too often depending on how I want to ride them and the season. On the road, I will run either 23c or 25c wide tires.

Interested in a set? Contact me!

Shimano Ultegra Di2 RD Modification

I customer who just had knee surgery asked if I could modify his Shimano Ultegra Di2 (6770) rear derailleur so he could have more gear and go up to a 32 tooth rear cassette. I replaced the standard SS cage with a new mechanical Ultegra GS cage. In addition to this change, a longer B-screw was needed to provide clearance between the derailleur and the cassette. Worked out perfectly!

GS Di2

Old SS cage on top and the new GS cage installed on the Ultegra 6770 rear derailleur.

Pacenti SL23 Powertap Wheel Build

Pacenti SL23 rims with a Powertap G3 rear hub and a matching Powertap front hub. Front wheel was a 20 spoke radial build and the rear was a 24 spoke 2x build. Both the front and rear were built with black Sapim CX-Ray spokes and Sapim brass nipples. The client is going to be setting them up tubeless. This is going to make a great training wheelset.
