Columbus Gara 50 Carbon Road Wheelset - 700c

Born from a collaboration with DT Swiss for unwavering reliability and peak performance. Built with DT Swiss 240 hubs with Ratchet EXP®, Vonoa SLR carbon spokes, and titanium nipples (1298g).

The Hub
Built around the legendary DT Swiss 240 hub featuring the Ratchet EXP® system. This premium setup ensures ultra-simplified maintenance, extended bearing longevity, and instantaneous 36T engagement for maximum power transfer.

Rim Tech
Optimised for modern 28-32mm tyres, the 23mm internal channel allows for lower pressures. This drastically enhances grip, lowers rolling resistance, and dampens road vibrations, delivering superior control and a smooth ride on any surface.
Internal reinforced nipple seats ensure perfect spoke alignment and reduce structural stress on the rim. The U-shaped profile (featuring a 23mm internal and 30mm external width) significantly reduces aerodynamic drag. Designed with a hooked rim profile for maximum safety, it is tubeless-ready and arrives ready to ride with tubeless tape and a valve pre-installed.

Carbon Spokes
Featuring VONOA SLR carbon spokes paired with titanium nipples, delivering an unmatched weight-to-reliability ratio of just 1298g per pair.
