Campagnolo Calima Wheelset

Yes, the Calima wheelset is designed specifically for rim brake systems. Please ensure your frame and fork use standard quick-release dropouts, as these wheels are not compatible with thru-axle systems.

The G3 pattern groups spokes in sets of three, which helps balance the tension on both sides of the wheel. This design improves power transfer during acceleration and increases the overall structural integrity of the wheel under load.

No, these rims are designed for traditional clincher tires with inner tubes. They do not feature the bead profile required for a tubeless setup.

At 1826 grams, these are reliable, durable wheels rather than ultra-lightweight climbing specialists. While they are efficient enough for general riding and rolling terrain, you will notice the extra weight on steep, sustained ascents compared to high-end carbon race wheels.

With an internal rim width of 17mm, these wheels are optimized for standard road tires ranging from 23mm to 28mm. While you might be able to fit slightly wider tires depending on your frame clearance, 25mm or 28mm tires will provide the best balance of comfort and handling.
