First introduced in 1994, in almost 30 years of history Bora wheels have established themselves as an absolute benchmark in the world of high-performance wheels for racing bicycles. Let's take a detailed look at the history, features and innovations that have made Bora wheels so popular among cyclists.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Birth and history of the Campagnolo Bora<\/span><\/h3>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Campagnolo Bora Series wheels in prompt delivery:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bici-bici.it\/en\/campagnolo-company\/bora\/wto-45\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Campagnolo Bora WTO 45<\/span><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/bici-bici.it\/en\/azienda-campagnolo\/bora\/wto-33\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Campagnolo Bora WTO 33<\/span><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/bici-bici.it\/en\/campagnolo-company\/bora\/wto-ultra-33\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Campagnolo Bora WTO Ultra 33<\/span><\/a><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Campagnolo Bora ULTRA\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Campagnolo Bora ONE 50<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">The Bora story began in the early 1990s, when Campagnolo decided to develop a new product hitherto unheard of in the company's range: a set of high-performance wheels specifically for use on time trial and triathlon bikes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">After years of absolute dominance in the field of groupsets and components, Campagnolo also wanted to try its hand in the wheel sector, which is booming thanks to new composite materials such as carbon fiber and Kevlar.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">The goal was ambitious: to create the most aerodynamic, lightest and highest-performance wheels on the market. After a long period of research and wind tunnel testing, the Bora TriAthlon was unveiled in 1994: lenticular carbon wheels that were lightweight and super stiff.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">The name Bora derives from the katabatic wind blowing in the plain between Slovenia and Croatia, a symbol of the exceptional performance against the air that the wheels promised. From the first version, the Bora employed ceramic bearings, a great innovation for the time.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Product evolution<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">The success of the first <a href=\"https:\/\/bici-bici.it\/en\/campagnolo-company\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Compagnolo Bora corsagnolo wheels<\/a> was immediate in the world of time trial racing. Campagnolo continued to develop and improve the product, launching new versions. In 1995 came the Bora UL (Ultralight) with 22 mm rims, in 2001 the Bora 'wide body' with 27 mm rims.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">In 2004 the even lighter and stiffer Bora Ultra was launched, used by professional cycling teams. In 2007 came a major redesign of the wheel, with new rims and bearings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">2015 saw the introduction of the Bora One, the first Bora with one-piece rims to increase stiffness and responsiveness. Campagnolo's latest frontier of innovation is the 2020 Bora Ultra WTO, with soloUnpiece rims and hi-tech solutions such as the G3 carbon hub.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Cutting-edge technologies<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Since the first Bora, Campagnolo has used innovative solutions that have set the standard in the wheel industry. Lenticular rims, which are popular today, were first used on the Bora itself in 1994.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">The use of ceramic bearings, which are much smoother than traditional bearings, was also introduced by Bora in the early 1990s, when this technology was in its infancy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Today the Bora represent the ultimate in Campagnolo research, with exclusive solutions such as:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"list-disc pl-8 space-y-2\" style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Seamless, soloUnpiece rims for extreme stiffness and responsiveness.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">C-LUX technology, which combines carbon fiber and liquid crystal polymer resin for stronger rims up to 50%.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Symmetrical G3 rim profile designed in wind tunnel for excellent aerodynamic performance.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">MoMag technology: carbon hubs optimized to be magnetic so that the spokes are attracted to the center to have the wheel perfectly centered at all times.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Ultra-smooth ceramic USB bearings capable of amplifying wheel stiffness and responsiveness.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Minimal weight differences between front and rear rims to ensure perfect bike balance.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Design and craftsmanship<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">In addition to the hi-tech component, a strong point of the Campagnolo Bora is undoubtedly the design, the result of the perfect fusion of Italian craftsmanship and cutting-edge technology. The rims with clean surfaces, bold color choices such as deep red, and embossed logos make the Bora an object with a unique and perfectly recognizable aesthetic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">The production processes also combine craftsmanship and technology: the rims, made in the Bergamo area, which has a great tradition of wheel making, are shaped by hand and fired in special ovens to enhance their mechanical properties. Each Campagnolo Bora wheel is a concentrate of style,passion and Italian two-wheel culture.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Sports champions and feats<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Since their inception, Bora wheels have been chosen by cycling's greatest champions, fascinated by their ability to make the bike fly. The Bora proved successful in time trials, mountain stages, and sprints with close ranks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Suffice it to say that from 1994 to the present, 60% of the Olympic and world medals in road cycling have been won by athletes on bikes equipped with Campagnolo Bora wheels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Among the champions who have chosen Bora bikes are legendary names such as Marco Pantani, Jan Ullrich, Paolo Bettini, Oscar Freire, Mario Cipollini, Alberto Contador, Vincenzo Nibali and many others. Bora bikes have accompanied such epic feats as Marco Pantani's Giro-Tour one-two in 1998 or Paolo Bettini's success at the 2006 World Championships in Salzburg.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">On-road and off-road use<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Born for time trials and triathlons, over the years the Bora have evolved to become excellent on the road as well. Today they are produced in both road and off-road versions. Bora WTO road wheels, with 33-45 mm rims, are among the most popular wheels in professional cycling and among discerning amateurs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Campagnola Bora WTO offroad wheels, on the other hand, have 25-33 mm rims, suitable for gravel and adventure use. Even in offroad and granfondo competitions, the Bora wheels provide excellent performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">This is thanks to the proverbial stiffness that amplifies responsiveness on uneven terrain and the vibration-dampening ability typical of lenticular rims. In short, the Bora excel on both asphalt and dirt.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Product range and prices<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Campagnolo offers Bora both aftermarket and original equipment for major frame companies. The range includes:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"list-disc pl-8 space-y-2\" style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Bora WTO for road in 33,45 and 60 mm versions. The 33 and 45 mm are also available in 'tubular' versions for tubular tires.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Bora WTO for off-road in 25 and 33 mm versions.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Bora One for triathlon and time trial, with 85 mm rims.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Bora Ultra TT 75 and 85 mm lenticular wheels for time trial and track.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Bora prices vary depending on the model but are definitely in the high end of the market, ranging from 1500 to 3700 Euros for the top-of-the-line carbon versions. The aluminum Bora have more affordable but still challenging prices, indicatively from 500 to 1200 Euros.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 110%;\">Campagnolo's Bora wheels represent the daydream 'dream' of every cycling enthusiast.
