The Musette is Cyclingnews’ weekly look at some of the world’s best cycling gear. We’ll take a look at pro-level equipment, bikes and components, alongside some of the most desirable clothing and accessories in the sport.

Scroll down for this week’s look at Shimano’s range-topping disc brake wheels, the latest update to Look’s iconic carbon clipless pedals, a Sportful jersey worn by Peter Sagan (Bora-Hansgrohe) and Vincenzo Nibali (Bahrain-Merida), a helmet worn by Alejandro Valverde (Movistar Team) during his world championships road race victory and an unusual, and now more affordable, saddle from Italian brand Repente.

Dura-Ace is Shimano’s range-topping groupset components range. The drivetrain and braking components are used by 13 of the 18 teams in the WorldTour making them by far the most widely used brand at the top of the sport.

Shimano Dura-Ace wheels are less prevalent, with only four WorldTour squads using the brand’s wheels although these teams have ridden the wheels to the last six Grand Tour victories through Simon Yates, Chris Froome, Geraint Thomas and Tom Dumoulin.

Shimano Dura-Ace R9100 series wheels are available in rim or disc brake (photographed) options and in three rim depths for climbing (C24), mixed terrain (C40) and aero (C60), which is seen here.
