The Bora Ultra 35 meets the requirements of champions using Campagnolo, accompanying them on all their successes, from the Tour 2013 onwards. The clincher and tubular versions of the 35mm wheel, maintain the versatility that brings results on any terrain and in any weather, also adding the advantages of the new generation. The secret of this legendary wheel lies in the details and the innumerable victories are its best testimony. The Bora Ultra wheel is entirely hand-assembled by a specialised Campagnolo technician and is checked in every tiny detail with electronic instrumentation. This ensures maximum performance and reliability for all Campagnolo wheels. Campagnolo engineering staff have developed a new construction that has created braking performance above and beyond anything found on carbon rims to date. The Campy Tech Lab's developments focused on being able to give the rider the same braking performance in wet conditions as in dry conditions. The result is a new braking surface technology called AC3 (all Conditions Carbon Control). Cult Bearings (Ceramic Ultimate Level Technology) is a combination of the highest quality ceramic ball bearings and stainless steel races available on the market, to reduce friction to the very minimum yet maintain a consistently high level of performance for long periods of time. The Mega-G3 Spoke pattern is a type of spoke assembly that improves energy transfer between the hub, which reduces stress on the right-hand side which in turn increases the rigidity of the wheel. This is achieved by having twice as many spokes as the left-hand side. Increasing the rim width from 20.5mm to 24.2mm allowed the Campagnolo engineers to not only improve the aerodynamics but also to allow the wheel to accommodate wider tyres. Using wider tyres increases control, as the contact area between tyre and asphalt is increased, improving grip and creating a more comfortable ride. The wider rim profile increases structural integrity, without increasing the weight of the wheelset. Features: Full Carbon medium profile 35mm rim, in clincher and tubular versions. Includes brake pads specifically for carbon wheels AC3 treatment on the brake surface, improving braking in all conditions RDB (Rim Dynamic Balance) exclusive technology engineered into the rims, assures perfect balance even at high speeds Ultra lightweight decals eliminate the need for heavy adhesives and painting, reducing the overall weight by nearly 15g Carbon hub with oversized flange, cup and cone CULT bearings and aluminium axle Aerodynamic spokes with exclusive Mega-G3 spoke pattern with anti-rotation system Quick release with Eccentric-closure system Freehub: CA 9/10/11/12x, SH 11x or 9/10x with spacers Weight: 1360g for Clincher, (CA) for Campagnolo, (SH) for Shimano Assembly: The Bora Ultra 35 Wheel is entirely hand built by a specialised Campagnolo technician and is checked in every tiny detail with electronic tools.

Managing this is crucial to stability. Sawtooth: SawTooth is the name given to Zipp NSW's patented variable depth 53/58mm rims. Developed utilising the principles of the emerging science of biomimicry, Zipp engineers began the rigorous aero development process of SawTooth utilising the wind tunnel, CFD, and real-world testing. The result is a rim shape that takes nature's most elegant design solutions and combines engineering precision to deliver a wheel that performs unlike any made before. This patented rim shape achieves something conventional aero wheels cannot; it simultaneously reduces both aerodynamic drag and side force for the ultimate in AeroBalance. Sawtooth accomplishes this with a series of patented fin-shaped Hyperfoil nodes along the inner diameter of the rim that work together with HexFin ABLC dimples for improved airflow. The result is Zipp's highest performing wheel ever released with both aero-drag reduction and reduced side force at all wind yaw angles. This is important because higher wind yaw angles are where bike handling is most affected by the wind. Hyperfoil: Hyperfoil is the name given to the individual nodes on Zipp NSW variable depth Sawtooth rims. Each of these patented structures features Zipp's HexFin ABLC dimples that help to stabilize handling in gusting wind by increasing wind vortex shedding frequency. The higher frequency vortex shedding produced by Sawtooth creates a greater number of smaller, less powerful, yet more predictable vortices leading to greater wheel stability. This added stability translates into greater rider control, thereby saving energy that is typically expended trying to hold a line in gusting wind. The result is a faster, more confident riding experience whether you are laying down power or descending sinuous mountain roads.Hexfin ABLC: HexFin ABLC dimples are the hexagonally shaped depressions found at each Hyperfoil of our Sawtooth shaped NSW rims. The angular shape of each dimple increases boundary layer mixing to help keep airflow attached to the rim for reduced aerodynamic drag and improved stability in crosswinds. To further improve the effectiveness of the hexagonal dimples, they are arranged in fin-shaped clusters made up of variable sized dimples that work in concert with each Hyperfoil of a Sawtooth rim.Axial Clutch: With Cognition's Axial Clutch technology, Zipp reduced drag by disengaging the ratchet mechanism when coasting. With less internal hub drag a rider can pedal less when drafting in a headwind, achieve higher speeds when coasting in an aero tuck, or opt to stop pedalling a moment sooner before entering a corner and bank that wattage for use exiting the corner. Axial Clutch technology also allows riders to maintain speed through corners that don't require braking input, thereby increasing corner exit speeds. Inside the Axial Clutch mechanism Zipp use magnets, rather than steel springs, to move and engage the lightweight Metal Injection Molded (MIM) ratchet rings for unmatched reliability and consistent operation. With 36 points of engagement that all interlock simultaneously, there isn't a more secure freehub mechanism on the market. TSE Technology: Zipp's TSE Technology (Total System Efficiency) was developed by its engineers in the Nest Advanced Development Lab in Indy. This approach to carbon-wheel manufacturing means the wheel's precise rim layup results in greater all-around efficiency for greater speed through reduced: Wind resistance, rolling resistance and gravity (weight + durability) vibration losses.Manufacturer's Part Numbers: Shimano HG 10/11 speed: ZPWH8613000 SRAM XD 10/11/12 speed: ZPWH8613001Buy Zipp Wheels & Tyres from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

This makes it a great choice of upgrade for modern, multi-purpose road cycling plus, its rim width and anti-pinch flat technology ensures that higher volume tubeless road tyres can be added for greater stability, strength and an incredibly low weight.Built upon over a decade of carbon wheel crafting experience, the Foundation 45 brings ENVE's knowledge and technology to the masses. Blended aero properties, tubeless compatibility, and pinch flat protection for the rider looking to test the waters on carbon wheel performance. ENVE Worthy, and priced to provide the foundation for confident riding through performance-crafted carbon in the US. Ideal for cyclists and triathletes looking to move into the world of carbon. Aerodynamics are an unalienable right for road cyclists and triathletes that allows for greater efficiency and confidence-inspiring handling, regardless of wind conditions. With more than a decade's experience in developing some of the world's fastest wheels, ENVE are uniquely qualified to deliver best-in-class aerodynamics to the Foundation customer.Like ENVE's SES wheel family, the Foundation Collection and its ENVE 45 were tested and developed at the Mercedes Benz Formula One wind-tunnel to deliver best-in-class real-world aero performance. Unlike other wheel brands who only test isolated wheels at elite speeds of 30mph/48kph, ENVE develops and tests wheels in-frame at multiple speeds ranging from 20mph/32kph to 30mph/48kph. This testing, while more time consuming and expensive, ensures that the ENVE 45 delivers performance advantages to riders of all abilities.Tubeless for the WinTubeless is the future and the future is now. The benefits of road tubeless are as follows:• Lower rolling resistance: By eliminating the inner-tube, the friction between tyre and tube is also eliminated, allowing the tyre roll, flex, and conform to the road with greater efficiency.• Flat less, ride more: Flat tyres are a buzz-kill. With a little sealant you can eliminate nearly all flats that would have been caused by an intrusive thorn or piece of debris.• Run the Best Pressure: Tubeless means you can run the pressure you want to maximize comfort, traction, and rolling efficiency. • Hookless/Straight-Sidewall Design: Tubeless performance depends on the tire maintaining a light press-fit with the rim on the bead seat diameter. ENVE chooses a hookless tubeless rim profile as it allows the rim's critical tolerance at the bead seat diameter to be both consistent and accurate.

Wide, Hookless Bead Teachnology: Featuring ENVE's Wide Hookless Bead technology, the ENVE 45 disperses any impact from pot holes, curbs and debris over a wide area, reducing the likelihood of pinch flats. Potholes and unforeseen impacts are part of life, but that doesn't mean they need to ruin your ride. The ENVE 45 features ENVE's patent pending Wide Hookless Bead which is a design element at the leading edge of the rim that dissipates impact energy and reduces the likelihood of pinch flatting your tubed or tubeless tyre. Patented Technology: Patented Molded Spoke and Valve Stem Hole Technology results in rims that are light and strong. Because carbon fibre gets its strength from continuous fibres, ENVE routes the fibres around the hole without cutting them which increases the strength of each spoke hole. ENVE's patented process of moulding spoke and valve stem holes results in rims that are stronger and lighter. Because carbon fibre gets its strength from continuous fibres, ENVE routes the fibres around the hole without cutting them, increasing the strength of each spoke hole. This technique pays large dividends in the final product by allowing for a lighter spoke face while improving rim strength.

Patented Technology: Patented Molded Spoke and Valve Stem Hole Technology results in rims that are light and strong. Because carbon fibre gets its strength from continuous fibres, ENVE routes the fibres around the hole without cutting them which increases the strength of each spoke hole. ENVE's patented process of moulding spoke and valve stem holes results in rims that are stronger and lighter. Because carbon fibre gets its strength from continuous fibres, ENVE routes the fibres around the hole without cutting them, increasing the strength of each spoke hole. This technique pays large dividends in the final product by allowing for a lighter spoke face while improving rim strength. Because of this process, our spoke holes are capable of maintaining higher spoke tensions, greatly reducing the risk of spoke pull-through and the need to constantly true your wheels.

Campagnolo Bora Ultra 35 Clincher Wheelset - Campagnolo - Dark Label

The Bora Ultra 35 meets the requirements of champions using Campagnolo, accompanying them on all their successes, from the Tour 2013 onwards. The clincher and tubular versions of the 35mm wheel, maintain the versatility that brings results on any terrain and in any weather, also adding the advantages of the new generation. The secret of this legendary wheel lies in the details and the innumerable victories are its best testimony. The Bora Ultra wheel is entirely hand-assembled by a specialised Campagnolo technician and is checked in every tiny detail with electronic instrumentation. This ensures maximum performance and reliability for all Campagnolo wheels. Campagnolo engineering staff have developed a new construction that has created braking performance above and beyond anything found on carbon rims to date. The Campy Tech Lab's developments focused on being able to give the rider the same braking performance in wet conditions as in dry conditions. The result is a new braking surface technology called AC3 (all Conditions Carbon Control). Cult Bearings (Ceramic Ultimate Level Technology) is a combination of the highest quality ceramic ball bearings and stainless steel races available on the market, to reduce friction to the very minimum yet maintain a consistently high level of performance for long periods of time. The Mega-G3 Spoke pattern is a type of spoke assembly that improves energy transfer between the hub, which reduces stress on the right-hand side which in turn increases the rigidity of the wheel. This is achieved by having twice as many spokes as the left-hand side. Increasing the rim width from 20.5mm to 24.2mm allowed the Campagnolo engineers to not only improve the aerodynamics but also to allow the wheel to accommodate wider tyres. Using wider tyres increases control, as the contact area between tyre and asphalt is increased, improving grip and creating a more comfortable ride. The wider rim profile increases structural integrity, without increasing the weight of the wheelset. Features: Full Carbon medium profile 35mm rim, in clincher and tubular versions. Includes brake pads specifically for carbon wheels AC3 treatment on the brake surface, improving braking in all conditions RDB (Rim Dynamic Balance) exclusive technology engineered into the rims, assures perfect balance even at high speeds Ultra lightweight decals eliminate the need for heavy adhesives and painting, reducing the overall weight by nearly 15g Carbon hub with oversized flange, cup and cone CULT bearings and aluminium axle Aerodynamic spokes with exclusive Mega-G3 spoke pattern with anti-rotation system Quick release with Eccentric-closure system Freehub: CA 9/10/11/12x, SH 11x or 9/10x with spacers Weight: 1360g for Clincher, (CA) for Campagnolo, (SH) for Shimano Assembly: The Bora Ultra 35 Wheel is entirely hand built by a specialised Campagnolo technician and is checked in every tiny detail with electronic tools.
