The Bola CLA 700C 88mm Carbon Front Wheel - an 88mm deep-section aero front wheel for triathlon and time trial on disc road bikes, built in Toray T700/T800 unidirectional carbon.
When the clock is your only rival, a front wheel must cut the air cleanly and hold its line. The Bola CLA 700C 88mm Carbon Front Wheel is built for triathletes and time-trial riders who demand tubeless-ready aero speed on a modern Center Lock, 12x100mm disc platform.
Buying Guide.
Internal width - 18mm: pair with a narrow 25-28mm race tire at 90-110 PSI tubeless for the lowest drag on smooth tarmac.
Internal width - 21mm: step to a 28-30mm tire at 80-100 PSI for rougher chipseal or a cushioned race-day feel.
Max rider weight: rated to 125kg system - check rider and gear before ordering.
Same-depth series: this deep front sits at the top of its own tier; pair it with the CLA 60/88 TT rear for a matched set, or move to an ELT/ULT front only if you want ceramic bearings and lighter spokes.
Adjacent depth: as a single front there is no paired depth to choose; its natural companion is a shallower front when crosswinds bite.
Target Audience & Usage Notes.
Ideal for triathletes, TT specialists, and fast criterium sprinters on disc road frames with 12x100mm thru-axles and Center Lock rotors.
This is a front wheel only (no rear).
Not intended for climbing or gran fondo - depth and mass favour flat speed.
Tubeless-ready, clincher compatible.
Verify fork tire clearance before running 38mm rubber.
The Ride That Awaits.
Clip in on a flat TT course and this deep front cuts the air like a blade drawn cleanly through silk - you hold speed with less effort, the ratchet hub biting the instant you lean on the pedals. A steady guiding hand is all it asks in a coastal gust. Free shipping, VAT included, and a 3-year rim / 2-year wheelset warranty with crash-replacement cover mean the only thing left to do is pin a number and go.
