Bora Rim Weight

[Luften]

Does anyone know the weight of the bora 35 tubular rims? Just the rims.

I can't find this anywhere!

try this link, not sure if this is what you looking for. It says 1170 gram (for ultra) ..

good try.... but that's the weight of the Bora 35 Ultra wheelset not the rim only

the Ultra 2 rear hub alone weighed a surprisingly porky ~284gr (vs the Bora One's 286g) as shown here (bottom pp1):

So adding a guesstimate weight for the spokes (any ideas?) and subtracting the weight of the rear wheel (690g) should give you a rough estimate of the weight of the rim.

You could do the same exercise with the front hub, another porky ~98grams, as shown here by coloclimber: viewtopic.php?t=58853

no idea how much lighter the ultra 2015 hubs are...but the difference might not be that big...10-15g? knowing the actual weight of the rim would be much better of course...but this should give you a decent first order approximation...

Ok so if we run the numbers I get 320-350g for the rim (using DT aerolite spokes, alloy nips and making some guess adjustments for a campag freehub and new version). Seems about reasonable I guess.

I just noticed that the Hyperon is heavier than the boras which seems weird... Anyone know if there's a new Hyperon in the works? Or what's going on there?!
