Ultimate refinement: Campagnolo Bora WTO 45 Dark Label Wheel

Since its debut in 1998, the Bora wheelset has consistently set benchmarks in enduring performance, reliability, and competitive success. Over its illustrious history, the Bora has evolved continuously, not merely to win races, but to redefine standards in high-performance road-racing wheelsets with each new iteration, introducing innovations that enhance the cycling experience.

Bora has established itself as the pinnacle in carbon racing wheels due to its responsiveness, handling prowess, and the combination of lightweight design with unwavering reliability. The Bora WTO project epitomizes this ethos, placing aerodynamic efficiency at its core. The Campy Tech Lab has dedicated extensive resources to further refining aerodynamics, resulting in the Bora WTO Wheels. These wheels boast a 26.5mm wide extremely aerodynamic rim, meticulously Wind Tunnel Optimised (WTO) for real-world conditions. Their efficiency not only reduces drag but can even generate negative drag at certain angles.

Crafted from 100% high Modulus Carbon fiber, each Bora WTO wheel is meticulously handmade, allowing Campagnolo engineers to precisely orient every fiber according to specific design criteria. The rim construction is optimized to enhance performance, strategically reinforcing areas crucial for integrity and function, while the unique finish, owing to the rim's anti-UV resin, eliminates the need for paint or clear coat, preserving a pristine appearance.

The 19mm internal width rim accommodates tires ranging from 23 to 28c, optimizing fit and creating a more aerodynamic profile. Featuring 2-Way Fit, the rim supports both clincher and tubeless tires, offering versatility for varying preferences and conditions. The AC3 (All Conditions Carbon Control) braking surface technology enhances braking performance in diverse weather conditions without compromising pad longevity.

Every component of the Bora WTO Wheels, from rim to hub and spokes, is meticulously developed in wind tunnels to ensure maximum aerodynamic efficiency. The rim, constructed entirely from high Modulus Carbon, not only exemplifies Campagnolo's renowned ride quality but also incorporates a special brake block compound designed specifically for carbon wheels, enhancing braking reliability on wet and dry surfaces.

Further enhancing performance, the USB Ceramic Cup-and-Cone system provides precise bearing alignment, minimizing play for consistent cycling performance. The hub structure, crafted from lightweight aluminum, is optimized for aerodynamic efficiency and exceptional stiffness, reinforcing the Bora's reputation as a leader in racing wheel technology.

In essence, the Bora WTO Wheels represent the culmination of decades of Campagnolo's engineering prowess and dedication to pushing the boundaries of performance cycling. Whether chasing podiums or pursuing personal bests, these wheels embody innovation and excellence, setting a new standard in race-winning performance and aerodynamic efficiency.
