The Bola EXP 50R’s 50mm depth and 28/30mm external width are specifically engineered for mixed road and light gravel use. This profile balances aerodynamic efficiency with lateral stability for tire sizes up to 32c, making it versatile for endurance, racing, and multi-surface terrain. **How does the 1310g weight compare to other carbon aero wheels?** The 1310g weight (without tape/valves) is competitive among aero-oriented 700C carbon wheelsets. While some ultralight climbing wheels may be sub-1200g, aero disc wheels in this depth typically range 1350–1450g. The Bola EXP 50R prioritizes strength, durability, and multi-terrain compatibility alongside low weight. **What tire sizes are best with 28mm or 30mm outer rims?** The optimal tire size for this rim is 28–32c for road and gravel conditions, maximizing comfort, grip, and aerodynamic shape. Wider tires up to 32c improve all-road performance and vibration absorption, while maintaining aerodynamic benefit. **Are DT Swiss 240s hubs worth it for performance?** DT Swiss 240s hubs offer precise 36T ratchet engagement, high bearing durability, and low rolling resistance. They are regarded for their reliability and serviceability—many competitive riders and shops consider the upgrade valuable if consistent performance is a priority. **What are the benefits of tubeless-ready carbon disc wheels for endurance cyclists?** Tubeless-ready rims allow lower tire pressures for more comfort and grip in long rides and rough terrain. They decrease pinch-flat risk, improve rolling efficiency, and enable use of wider tires—features riders appreciate in endurance, gravel, and group ride settings. ## Details - **Price:** 999.0 USD - **Type:** Carbon Road & Gravel Disc Wheelsets - **Tags:** 28mm wide, 30mm wide, 50mm, 700c, 700c disc brake wheels, 700C road wheels, 700c wheels, aero road wheels, all-road wheels, B2B carbon wheels, Bola EXP 50R wheelset, carbon disc wheelset, carbon wheelset, disc, DT Swiss, DT Swiss 240s, DT Swiss 240s hub, endurance bike upgrade, endurance cycling, gravel bike wheels, lightweight bike wheels, lightweight cycling wheel, performance wheelset, road, Sapim CX-Ray, tubeless, tubeless bicycle wheels, tubeless ready wheelset, tubeless-ready, wheels, wheelset ## Variants | Variant | Price | Available | |---------|-------|-----------| | 30/24mm / Shimano HG / Black Bola | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 30/24mm / Shimano HG / White Bola | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 30/24mm / Shimano HG / Customized | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 30/24mm / Sram XDR / Black Bola | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 30/24mm / Sram XDR / White Bola | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 30/24mm / Sram XDR / Customized | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 30/24mm / Compy / Black Bola | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 30/24mm / Compy / White Bola | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 30/24mm / Compy / Customized | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 28/21mm / Shimano HG / Black Bola | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 28/21mm / Shimano HG / White Bola | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 28/21mm / Shimano HG / Customized | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 28/21mm / Sram XDR / Black Bola | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 28/21mm / Sram XDR / White Bola | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 28/21mm / Sram XDR / Customized | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 28/21mm / Compy / Black Bola | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 28/21mm / Compy / White Bola | 999.00 USD | In stock | | 28/21mm / Compy / Customized | 999.00 USD | In stock | ## Images - Bola EXP 50R Carbon Disc Wheelset 700C, 50mm – DT Swiss 240s, 28/30mm Tubeless Carbon Fiber Sporting Goods - Bola EXP 50R Carbon Disc Wheelset 700C, 50mm – DT Swiss 240s, 28/30mm Tubeless Carbon Fiber Sporting Goods - Bola EXP 50R Carbon Disc Wheelset 700C, 50mm – DT Swiss 240s, 28/30mm Tubeless Carbon Fiber Sporting Goods ## Additional Information - **Product rating count:** 3 - **Related products settings:** ahead - **Hub Model:** DT Swiss 240s - **Rim Depth (mm):** 50 - **Rim Width (mm, external):** 30 - **Wheelset Weight (grams):** 1310 - **Spoke:** Sapim CX Ray - **Bearing:** DT --- > Source: [Bola Carbon Wheelset ](https://bolacarbon.com/products/bola-exp-50r-carbon-disc-wheelset-700c-50mm-dt-swiss-240s-28-30mm-tubeless) > Updated: 2026-07-31
