The character of this wheelset
A mid-weight pair with equal front and rear rim depths, steel spokes and steel bearings. Compare its 60 mm front rim and 23 mm internal width with the alternatives below, then check your tyres and total system weight before making a buying decision.

Where the BORA WTO 60 C23 sits among the 127 road disc wheelsets in the Show My Bike catalogue. Each dot is one wheelset. Positions describe specifications; they are not a rating.
Weight
At 1,460 g, it is lighter than 40 of the 126 other wheelsets with a confirmed weight in our catalogue. Among the 58 deep-rim wheelsets with a confirmed weight, it is in the middle of the group, 42nd from the lightest.

Widest listed tyre
Its listed range goes up to 41 mm. Of the 126 other wheelsets, 59 list a wider maximum tyre and 59 a narrower one.
Rim-depth groups use the average of front and rear depth: shallow-rim below 35 mm, mid-depth 35 to below 50 mm, deep-rim 50 to below 65 mm, very deep-rim 65 mm and above. Weights are manufacturer claims; wheelsets with an unverified weight are left out of the weight comparison. Prices from our October 2026 price check.
03 / WHAT IT MEANS
What the specs mean.
General context for the BORA WTO 60 C23's key specifications. Numbers in superscript link to the sources below each topic. How much each point matters depends on your riding, tyres and bike.
Internal rim width: how the tyre sits
The BORA WTO 60 C23 has an internal rim width of 23 mm and an external width of 29 mm.
internal23 mm
external29 mm
A wider internal rim spreads the tyre beads further apart, so the same tyre mounts wider and with more air volume: roughly 0.4 mm of tyre width per extra millimetre of rim width.1 A tyre labelled 28 mm can measure around 30 mm on a 21 mm rim,2 so check frame clearance against the measured width, not the printed one.4
Typical road rims have moved from about 19 mm internal width around 2020 to 21–25 mm, together with wider tyres. A wider rim also raises the narrowest tyre you may fit and, on hookless rims, comes with pressure limits.3 Brands usually shape the rim around a target tyre width for aerodynamics, so the fastest combination is not simply the widest tyre.5
Campagnolo approves tyres from 25 mm to 41 mm for this rim.
BORA WTO 60 C2325–41 mm
An approved tyre range is the span of tyre widths a manufacturer permits for a rim, based on the ETRTO/ISO tables for tyre and rim combinations.2 Not every brand publishes one: some give a recommendation only, or no maximum. The lower end is the narrowest tyre that fits that internal width safely; the upper end shows how far you can go towards wider, lower-pressure tyres for comfort and grip on rough roads or gravel, provided your frame has the clearance.4
In TOUR's tests, wider tyres at a pressure matched to their width roll about as easily as narrower ones on smooth surfaces and add comfort and grip on real roads, while a tyre much wider than the rim costs some aerodynamic drag.1 Pressure calculators such as Zipp's take the rim's internal width into account as well as the tyre.3
The BORA WTO 60 C23 uses 24 steel spokes front and rear.
BORA WTO 60 C23 24 front / 24 rear · steel
A carbon spoke weighs roughly half as much as a premium steel bladed spoke,1 and brands state that carbon is stiffer for its weight.2 That is why carbon-spoke versions often use fewer spokes and weigh less: Hunt's Limitless Ti_UD uses 15/18 carbon spokes against 20/24 steel spokes on the standard Limitless.3 Some reviewers describe a more direct feel when sprinting; that is a riding impression, not a measurement.5
Steel spokes such as DT Swiss Aerolite or Sapim CX-Ray are standard parts that most workshops can source and replace.4 Carbon spokes are more sensitive to side impacts, for example from a derailleur or debris, and may need brand-specific parts or tools;1 some brands include spare spokes or crash replacement to offset this.5 Visually, the lower spoke count and slim blades give carbon-spoke wheels a lighter, more open look.
Start with the rim dimensions, then look at the evidence behind the complete wheel-and-tyre setup.
Rim geometry
The shape behind the profile
The BORA WTO 60 C23 has 60 mm front and rear, with an external front width of 29 mm. These dimensions describe its shape; they do not establish a measured speed advantage.
The front rim is 60 mm deep. For exposed roads, compare the front-wheel design and evidence for your tyre setup. Depth alone cannot predict how confident you will feel in gusts.
Rim depth in context
Cross-section drawn to scale from the catalogue values for outer width, internal width and depth; hooked rims show the bead hook. Simplified shape, not the manufacturer's exact profile.
Deeper rims generally reduce aerodynamic drag, which pays off most at higher speeds on flat or rolling roads, but they tend to weigh more and can be more affected by gusty crosswinds. In a BikeRadar comparison, 60 mm aero wheels were about a second per kilometre faster on the flat but slower on steep climbs than a considerably lighter set.1
How a wheel behaves in crosswinds depends on the rim shape as well as its depth,3 which is why TOUR measures steering torque in the wind tunnel, not just drag.2 Shallower rims are generally easier to handle in gusts, something lighter riders and riders on exposed roads tend to notice first.1
Show My Bike publishes no aero or crosswind rating on product pages. Find My Fit uses rim depth and width as a rough proxy when it ranks wheelsets for your riding; how that works is explained on How We Score.
No automatic comfort or durability rating is assigned from rim width, spoke material, bearing type or warranty length.

Before you decide.
How much does the Campagnolo BORA WTO 60 C23 weigh?
Campagnolo claims 1,460 g for the pair, which makes it lighter than 40 of the 126 other wheelsets with a confirmed weight in our catalogue. Claimed weights do not always include rim tape and valves.
What tyre width fits the Campagnolo BORA WTO 60 C23?
Campagnolo approves tyres from 25 mm to 41 mm for this rim. The internal rim width is 23 mm. On wide rims, tyres usually measure wider than the size printed on them, so check your frame clearance as well.
What is the internal rim width of the Campagnolo BORA WTO 60 C23?
23 mm. The external width is 29 mm.
Is the Campagnolo BORA WTO 60 C23 hookless?
No. It uses a hooked rim, which also accepts tyres that are not approved for hookless rims, within the listed range and the pressure limits of rim and tyre.
How much does the Campagnolo BORA WTO 60 C23 cost?
€1,749 per pair at our October 2026 price check; the manufacturer's recommended price is €2,590. Prices change, so check the current offer with the retailer or manufacturer.
Why call the BORA WTO 60 C23 "Mid-weight"?
Its 1,460 g claimed pair weight is between our 1,450 g and 1,600 g boundaries. The description concerns weight only. It is not a rating of stiffness, quality or suitability for a particular rider.
Are all the listed tyre widths equally aerodynamic?
A tyre range does not establish equal aerodynamic performance across that range. Campagnolo approves tyres from 25 mm to 41 mm for this rim. Check the tyre requirements for your own setup and the manufacturer's guidance on the best width for this rim.
