Originally built for Pacenti company director Duncan Lloyd, after a successful Japan Oddysey and Trans Am Bike Race in 2017, he wanted something new for his 2018 adventures. It had to be light, but offer the bonus of being able to power his lights and charge his tech. The answer? A set of Pacenti P30 carbon rims laced to a Shutter Precision (SP) front dynamo hub, and they’re making 15 sets for the rest of us…
The wheelset is being offered for pre-order for $1,499 with delivery expected in March 2018. Weight is claimed at 1,550g for the pair, and they’re laced 28-hole front and rear using their molded carbon, tubeless ready, hookless carbon rims.
Out back is their standard rear hub with Shimano 11-speed freehub body and Centerlock rotor mount. They’ll ship with standard QR ends, but you can add thru axle hub caps to your order as needed. Order quick if you want them, once they’re gone, they’re gone…maybe. Kirk Pacenti told us it’s not just Duncan that’s into the long distance cycling. He’s getting more into it himself, too, and this is a category they’re looking to grow.
