The Bola EXP 40R Carbon Disc Wheelset pairs a 40mm-deep aero profile with a wide rim platform and lightweight construction so you can push hard on mixed-terrain rides without sacrificing climbing agility. ## Bola EXP 40R Carbon Disc Wheelset - Designed for road racing and mixed-terrain performance The 40mm rim depth strikes a balance between aerodynamic benefit and crosswind stability, while the broad 28mm or 30mm external profile supports modern 28–32c tubeless tires for lower pressures and improved comfort.
