The Bola EXP 50R is a 50mm T1000 aero road disc wheelset on DT Swiss 240s hubs with CX-Ray spokes, 1350g, for aero road and light gravel.
The aero road blade: DT Swiss power, 50mm depth. The Bola EXP 50R pairs a 50mm T1000 rim (28-32mm external, 21-26mm internal) with genuine DT Swiss 240s hubs and Sapim CX-Ray spokes — a dependable aero road wheelset that bridges to light gravel via tubeless-ready wide internal widths.
Buying Guide.
Internal width - 21mm: 28c at 70-80 PSI for smooth tarmac.
Internal width - 24mm: 28-32c at 65-78 PSI for rolling road.
Internal width - 26mm: 32c at 40-50 PSI for light gravel.
Max rider weight: rated to 120kg - the highest in EXP, suiting heavier builds.
Same-depth series: the PRO 50R (~$999) is lighter with ceramic bearings and the PRM 50R (~$888) is the value pick; the EXP 50R leans on a genuine DT Swiss 240s hub.
Adjacent depth: the EXP 45R below is calmer in crosswinds - choose the 50R for aero on flats, the 45R for composure in gusts.
Target Audience & Usage Notes.
Disc-brake road and gravel frames, 12x100/12x142 thru-axle.
Max system weight 120kg (highest in EXP).
Not for heavy off-road or severe gravel.
The Ride That Awaits.
Flat-out on the open road, the rim cuts the air while the DT Swiss hub clicks a steady rhythm between your efforts. You hold the bars, the group drags behind, and the rough cut-through softens when the tarmac ends. Free shipping and a 3-year rim / 2-year wheelset warranty mean the only regret would be delay.
