The Bola ULT 50G 700C Carbon Gravel Wheelset - a 50mm aero gravel set with a 28-32mm wide bed and Sapim CX-Ray spokes, built in Toray T800 UD matte carbon.

A lightweight 50mm aero carbon gravel wheelset for mixed-terrain riding. The Bola ULT 50G delivers aerodynamic speed, wide-tire compatibility, and gravel-proven durability for gravel racers, bikepackers, and gran fondo enthusiasts. Toray T800 UD matte carbon, ceramic-bearing hubs (54T ratchet), and Sapim CX-Ray spokes bring stiff power transfer and low rolling resistance.

Buying Guide.

Internal width - 28mm: run a 40-45mm tire at 32-48 PSI tubeless for fast gravel.

Internal width - 30mm: cup a 45-50mm tire at 28-42 PSI for rough gravel.

Internal width - 32mm: settle a 48-55mm tire at 25-38 PSI on chunky bikepacking terrain.

Max rider weight: rated to 120kg system - light-load riding; confirm rider and gear before ordering.

Same-depth series: road-narrow mid-depth wheels sit elsewhere in the family, and the PRO 50G at $999 steps up to carbon spokes - choose this ULT 50G as the wide-bed, deep-aero gravel pick.

Adjacent depth: the ULT 45G is shallower and lighter for all-road - choose this 50G when aero on long gravel straights is the goal.

Target Audience & Usage Notes.

For gravel racers, bikepackers (light load), and mixed-surface endurance riders.

The deep section asks for attention in crosswinds.

Requires a gravel/road disc frame with thru-axles.

Max system weight 120kg.

The Ride That Awaits.

A fast gravel road opens into a six-mile straight and the deep rim aeros you along as though a gentle tailwind follows; then the track disintegrates into ruts and the wide bed settles a 45mm tyre at low pressure - grip, comfort, the ceramic hub humming back to power on every punchy rise. Free shipping, VAT included, and a 2-year global wheelset warranty with 30% crash-replacement cover mean your longest, wildest ride starts here.

Trade-offs & Considerations
Aero vs Crosswind: The 50mm gravel rim saves about 4.5W versus a 35mm wheel at 40km/h, but crosswind control drops at 10° yaw on exposed gravel sections; the shallower 45G trades about 2.0W of aero for calmer handling off-road.
Weight vs Stiffness: T1000 carbon brings the 34/36mm external build to about 1290g (±5g), roughly 95g lighter than a T800 gravel build at the same 50mm depth, while lateral stiffness stays within 3% and impact compliance meets ISO 4210-7 reference levels.
Tire-Type Trade-off: The hooked / hookless bed runs gravel tubeless from 30c to 68c: 28mm internal for 40–45mm at 32–48 PSI, 30mm for 45–50mm at 28–42 PSI, 32mm for 48–55mm at 25–38 PSI; the 38mm external build adds about 50g for the widest tyre clearances.
Sourcing & Delivery Trade-off: Stock builds ship in 1–3 business days at $698; a custom width, freehub or decal adds 7–15 business days and roughly a $60–100 premium.
Config Ladder: TPI ceramic bearings and the 54T ratchet (6.7° engagement) are already standard; the 38mm external width build adds about 50g over the 34/36mm option, while the deeper 50G rim adds about 2.0W of aero over the 45G at roughly the same price.

Gravel Racing: Fastest-growing US/EU segment — NA holds ≈40% of the global gravel market (2026); Unbound-style endurance events reward wide 28/30/28mm / 30mm / 32mm options beds with 35-50mm tubeless at 35-50 PSI.
Mixed-Surface Adventure: Eurobike 2026 trend toward all-road and 32er builds; this 50mm gravel platform transitions from tarmac to dirt without swapping wheels.
Bikepacking / Expedition: Eurobike/Cyclingworld Europe 2026 highlights bikepacking integration; wide beds carry 40-50mm tyres at low pressure for loaded comfort on rough routes.
