Product Information

Full details

The Campagnolo Bora WTO C23 Disc Brake Wheels - 60mm are designed for performance-oriented cyclists seeking maximum aerodynamic advantage and responsiveness. The key benefit is enhanced speed and stiffness, particularly for racing scenarios. A potential consideration is the 60mm rim depth, which may require adjustment in very windy conditions. This wheelset features a refined carbon rim layup, G3 spoke lacing for balanced tension and rigidity, and Campagnolo's 2-Way Fit technology for versatile tire options.

FAQs

What is the primary advantage of the 60mm rim depth?

The 60mm rim depth is optimized for aerodynamic performance, reducing drag and allowing for higher speeds, especially on flat terrain and descents.

Can I use this wheelset with my existing Shimano or SRAM drivetrain?

These wheels feature a Campagnolo N3W freehub body. Compatibility with Shimano or SRAM cassettes depends on whether a compatible N3W driver body is available for your specific drivetrain, or if you are using a Campagnolo drivetrain.

What does '2-Way Fit' mean?

Campagnolo's 2-Way Fit technology means the wheel is designed to be used with both traditional clincher tires and inner tubes, as well as tubeless-ready tires.

How does G3 lacing geometry benefit the rider?

G3 lacing creates a balanced spoke tension, which results in increased rigidity, improved stiffness, and enhanced power transfer for a more responsive ride.

Are these wheels suitable for climbing?

While the 60mm profile is less optimized for climbing than shallower rims, the significant weight reduction and stiffness of these wheels make them competent climbers, especially for riders who prioritize aero gains.

What is the maximum recommended tire pressure for tubeless setup?

Consult the tire manufacturer's recommendations for tubeless setups. Generally, lower pressures can be used for tubeless, but always adhere to the tire's maximum pressure rating.

Do these wheels require special maintenance?

Standard wheel care applies: keep them clean, check spoke tension periodically, and avoid harsh chemicals. The sealed bearings are low maintenance. It's always best to consult a professional mechanic for any complex adjustments.

Troubleshooting

Wheels are not spinning freely

Check for any obstructions or debris around the hub and axle. Ensure the thru-axle or quick release is not overtightened, causing bearing preload issues. If the problem persists, bearings may require servicing.

Brake rotor rub

Ensure the wheel is properly seated in the dropouts/thru-axle system. Check that the brake rotor is correctly installed and trued. Minor rotor misalignment can sometimes be corrected by slightly adjusting the caliper position.

Difficulty installing tubeless tire

Ensure the rim bed is clean and free of debris. Use a compatible tubeless sealant and mounting fluid. For stubborn tires, using a compressor or tubeless tire booster can help seat the bead.

Noise from spokes or nipples

This can sometimes indicate low spoke tension or a loose nipple. Have the wheel inspected by a qualified mechanic to check and adjust spoke tension.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional aerodynamic performance due to the 60mm rim profile.
  • High stiffness and responsiveness for efficient power transfer.
  • Durable construction with reinforced carbon layup.
  • Versatile tire options with 2-Way Fit technology.
  • Noticeable weight reduction for improved acceleration.

Cons

  • The 60mm rim depth may be susceptible to crosswinds.
  • Requires specific N3W freehub bodies for compatibility.
  • May be a significant investment for recreational riders.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These wheels are designed for disc brake systems. Ensure your frame and fork are compatible with thru-axles if applicable to your specific model. The N3W freehub body requires compatible cassettes. Refer to Campagnolo's documentation for precise derailleur hanger and freehub body compatibility.

Compatibility:

  • Brakes: Disc brake systems (Centerlock or 6-bolt, depending on the specific hub variant).
  • Tires: Compatible with both tubeless-ready (TLR) tires and standard clincher tires using Campagnolo's 2-Way Fit system. Ensure tire compatibility with the 23mm rim width for optimal performance and safety.
  • Freehub: Requires Campagnolo N3W compatible freehub body. Check for compatibility with your drivetrain manufacturer (e.g., Shimano, SRAM).

Care:

  • Cleaning: Clean the rims and hubs with mild soap and water using a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the carbon finish.
  • Spoke Tension: Periodically check spoke tension. While G3 lacing helps maintain tension, impacts or heavy use may require adjustments. Consult a professional mechanic if unsure.
  • Bearing Maintenance: Keep bearings clean and free from grit. Periodic re-greasing may be beneficial, though sealed bearings require minimal user maintenance. Avoid high-pressure washing directly at the hub bearings.
  • Storage: Store wheels in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and chemicals.
