Campagnolo BORA X 50 DB 2WF C27 Gravel Bike Wheels

The aerodynamic Campagnolo BORA X 50 gravel wheelset brings absolute road speed to the unpaved trails. With a 50 mm rim height, the wheels cut efficiently through the wind, and the low overall weight guarantees smooth and explosive acceleration. Thanks to the high inner rim width, you will experience great stability and steering precision on rough gravel roads, resulting in maximum control in all weather conditions.

The base of this wheelset consists of a cleverly engineered carbon construction with a unidirectional fibre layup specifically tailored to the expected load. This manufacturing method creates a stiff rim that efficiently converts pedalling power into forward speed, while effectively absorbing and minimising vibration from rough gravel trails. The aerodynamic rim profile is 50 mm high and has undergone extensive wind tunnel testing. This height significantly reduces drag at high speeds. In addition, the rim features a hooked internal channel that is 27 mm wide. This wide rim base optimally supports gravel tyres, ensuring more stable handling and high steering precision on unpaved surfaces.

Besides the carbon rims themselves, this system has several technological components that increase efficiency on gravel. With a total weight of just 1430 grams, the wheels respond instantly to every acceleration and feel agile. The construction uses the iconic Campagnolo G3 spoke pattern, designed specifically for fast gravel riding. This patented pattern optimally balances stiffness and comfort. The spokes themselves have an aerodynamic, elliptical shape to significantly reduce air turbulence without adding unnecessary weight. Visually, the wheelset is finished with a black chrome X logo and the classic winged Campagnolo wheel, creating a cohesive and stylish look that goes perfectly with the matching groupset.

Compatibility and fit
Designed specifically for use with disc brakes, this gravel wheelset delivers the best performance when combined with the Super Record X groupset. The 27 mm inner rim width and the traditional hooked design make the rim compatible with wide gravel tyres. The manufacturer recommends a minimum tyre width of 35.5 mm for optimal fit and safety.
