The Bola ULT 35G 700C Carbon Gravel Wheelset - a ~1200g 35mm climbing gravel set with Sapim CX-Ray spokes and TPI ceramic bearings, built in Toray T800 carbon.
Bring confident control and lightweight performance to mixed-surface rides. The Bola ULT 35G reduces rotational mass while maintaining a stable, predictable tire profile for modern gravel bikes - built for riders who split fast gravel, rough farm tracks, and long all-road days.
Buying Guide.
Internal width - 24mm: run a 35-40mm tire at 40-60 PSI tubeless for fast gravel and smooth all-road.
Internal width - 30mm: cup a 42-48mm tire at 28-45 PSI for rough gravel and rock gardens.
Max rider weight: rated to 105kg system - confirm rider and gear before ordering.
Same-depth series: the ELT 35G at $579 uses a BL200 hub, while the SL 35G at $789 moves to DT Swiss 350 - choose this ULT for CX-Ray spokes and ceramic bearings between them.
Adjacent depth: within ULT gravel, the 45G adds aero and the 50G a deeper wide bed - this 35G is the climb specialist.
Target Audience & Usage Notes.
For gravel racers, endurance/bikepacking riders, and mixed-surface riders wanting a light, CX-Ray-shod build.
Not for heavy expedition loads or DH impacts.
Requires a gravel/all-road disc frame.
Max system weight 105kg.
The Ride That Awaits.
A back-country gravel climb rises through pine forest - the shallow rim and featherlight pair float up it, the bladed spokes stiffening on each out-of-the-saddle surge, the wide bed holding a 42mm tyre at low pressure over the rock garden at the top. Free shipping, VAT included, and a 24-month global warranty with 30% crash-replacement cover mean the next summit is already yours.
