Frequently Asked Questions
What are the aerodynamic advantages of a 3-spoke carbon wheel for triathlon and TT?
3-spoke wheels combine reduced frontal drag with improved crosswind stability, making them effective for race courses where pure disc wheels may be less manageable. The Bola design uses a 3D wave profile to further minimize turbulence and increase lateral control—especially for mid-to-high winds and technical turns.
Is this 3-spoke carbon 700c tubeless wheel UCI-compliant for official races?
Yes, the wheel meets UCI regulations for 700c competition and is certified to ISO 4210-7:2014 (international safety standards for wheels).
How does a 3-spoke compare to a disc wheel for TT or triathlon?
Disc wheels offer lower aerodynamic drag for straight, low-wind time trials, but a 3-spoke like the Bola provides better handling and control in crosswinds. Many athletes select a 3-spoke for variable courses and technical sections.
Can I use tubeless tires on this 3-spoke wheel, and what sizes are supported?
Yes, the rim is fully tubeless-ready and optimized for 25–32 mm road tires, giving lower rolling resistance and improved puncture resistance at lower pressures.
What should I consider when upgrading to carbon wheels for triathlon or TT?
Look for carbon quality (certified materials), rim design for your event type, tubeless compatibility, hub engagement system, global warranty support, and compliance with UCI/ISO standards.
