Campagnolo Bora X 50 wheels 2026

Campagnolo's philosophy is clear: every groupset deserves its own dedicated wheel

Only in this way can perfect synergy be achieved, enhancing performance and riding sensations. This vision has given rise to Bora X, the wheel that transfers the brand's racing soul from the roads to gravel competitions. The result of the same innovative drive that led to the creation of the Super Record X groupset, Bora X responds to the new demands of gravel racing, which is increasingly similar to the intensity and competitiveness of road cycling. Speed, aerodynamics, and control thus become the three pillars of an engineering project that redefines the standard in its category.

Construction
Designed in the wind tunnel and tested on the roughest terrain, this wheel has been developed to combine responsiveness and stability, capable of absorbing vibrations and maintaining riding precision in all conditions. With a 50-millimeter profile and 27-millimeter hooked rim, ideal for tires starting at 35, Bora X inherits the unidirectional fiber layup from the road version, depending on the workload, and reinterprets the iconic G3 spoke pattern with a specific configuration for fast gravel, combining aerodynamic spokes and elliptical spokes to reduce turbulence, promote air penetration, and balance stiffness and comfort.

Design
The aesthetic identity is perfectly consistent with the target group: the black chrome “X” logo recalls gravel use and dialogues with the Campagnolo signature and the timeless “winged wheel,” a symbol of excellence and tradition. The result is a wheel weighing just 1,430 grams, solid and responsive, capable of explosive acceleration, great control, and absolute reliability even on the most demanding routes.
