The Bola 700C 60mm carbon road rim - a 60mm UV-profile, 23mm-internal tubeless-ready disc rim in Standard/Superlight/Ultralight layups, for aero road and TT builds.

A full 60mm of wind-cheating carbon - deep, purposeful, and aimed squarely at the rider for whom the flat is a canvas and the crosswind a worthy adversary.

Buying Guide.

Weight tier - Standard (Heavy/Durable): for riders who value stability and impact margin over climbing speed.

Weight tier - Superlight (Midweight): the all-round aero pick, lighter than Standard yet still durable.

Weight tier - Ultralight (Midweight): the racer's pick, trimming mass for climbs within an aero build.

Internal width - 23mm: 28-32mm road tyres at ~70-95 PSI for aero road and TT.

Same-depth series: the 60mm tubeless 28mm rim ($310) runs a wider tyre platform; the 60mm UCI 30mm rim ($310) is a UCI-oriented aero option.

Adjacent depth: the 50mm 23mm UV rim ($310) is crosswind-gentler; the 65mm triathlon rim ($340) goes deeper for TT.

Disc builds only; respect the system weight limit.

Target Audience & Usage Notes.

aero road racers, TT riders and wheel builders.

Disc-brake road frames only (no rim brake track); 20/20 drilling, custom nipple angles (front 7, rear 5/7).

Rider limit 120kg.

Exact tier weight per spec table; not for steep climbs or rim-brake bikes.

The Ride That Awaits.

On a straight, fast road the 60mm section tracks true and steady, slipping past the wind as if it never saw you coming.

Hold the bar steady and it rewards the effort with long, fast miles.

Free shipping and a 3-year rim warranty make the deep-section bargain yours.

Trade-offs & Considerations
Aero vs Crosswind: 60mm depth saves about 6.0W versus a 35mm rim at 40km/h; at 10° yaw the toroidal UV profile calms the deep section, but the narrow 23mm internal width pairs with 25–32mm tyres and has a stronger crosswind signature than a 50mm rim.
Weight vs Stiffness: Layups range from Standard to Ultralight; the lightest layup saves roughly 100–150g per rim over Standard while lateral stiffness holds within about 5% — exact tier weights are TBD pending confirmation.
Tire-Type Trade-off: The hooked bead accepts clincher and tubeless tyres from about 25mm to 32mm; tubeless lowers rolling resistance but needs tape, a 6.5mm valve and sealant, with a max clincher pressure of 125 psi.
Sourcing & Delivery Trade-off: Stock drilling ships in 1–3 business days at $310; custom spoke-hole count, valve/hole diameters or decals add 7–15 business days and roughly a $40–80 premium.

Recommended Use Cases
Sprinting / Criterium: Good. The deep section provides aero benefit for accelerations and sprint speeds.
Triathlon / TT: Excellent. The 60mm depth is ideal for sustained high-speed efforts, reducing drag.
Road Racing: Excellent. Aero efficiency and tubeless readiness suit competitive road racing.
Gran Fondo / Endurance: Good. Wide tire support and tubeless setup add comfort for long rides.
Climbing / Hill Repeats: Not recommended. The deep section is heavy for steep climbs; a shallower rim would be more efficient.
Not Recommended For: Off-road or gravel riding due to its deep profile and disc-brake-only design; also not for rim brake bikes.
Compatibility
Frame Compatibility: Disc brake road bikes with 700c (ISO 622mm) wheels. Compatible with standard road hubs.
Tire Type: Clincher and tubeless tires. Tubeless-ready, hookless-compatible.
Tire Width Range: 27-40mm (recommended).
Brake Standard: Disc brake only (no rim brake track).
Drivetrain: Compatible with standard road drivetrains (Shimano, SRAM, Campagnolo).
Rotor Standard: N/A (rim only).

FAQ
What spoke drillings are available, and which brake type is this rim rated for?
Spoke drillings and brake rating depend on the build option, selectable at checkout. If you plan to lace your own wheel, confirm the drilling and brake type with Bola before ordering so the rim matches your hub and frame.
What is the maximum spoke tension for this rim?
Drive-side / disc-side max tension is 130–140 kgf, with the non-drive side adapted to match; spoke holes are locally reinforced inside the carbon layup to prevent pull-out cracking.
How does a deep-section rim handle crosswinds — will steering get pulled around?
An optimised profile keeps steering torque predictable at 10°–15° yaw, so high-speed descents stay planted even on deep-section builds.
What tyres can I mount on this rim, and what pressure should I run?
The 23mm inner width supports 700c tyres from 25mm to 32mm; both tubeless and clincher tyres mount on the hooked bead.
Will I really pay no customs or VAT for delivery to the US and EU?
Yes. The Economy channel ships DDP — duties and VAT are fully prepaid by us, cleared in advance, delivered to your door with no extra payment to customs or the courier.
