KORE lite 50mm Ultra-Light Carbon Wheelset – 975g

At just 975g for the pair, the KORE lite 50mm is one of the lightest 50mm carbon wheelsets you can fit to a disc road bike. It's built for riders who want climbing-wheel weight without giving up the aerodynamic benefit of a deeper rim – light enough to fly uphill, deep enough to stay fast on the flat.

The rims combine Toray T800 + T1000 carbon with Mitsubishi M40X high-modulus fibre, laced with titanium-carbon spokes weighing around 1.8g each. A 36T titanium ratchet and TPI bearings complete a wheelset where every component has been chosen to save weight while keeping the wheel stiff and precise.

Important: 80kg system weight limit

To achieve its ultra-low weight, the KORE lite 50mm has a maximum system weight of 80kg – that's rider, bike and gear combined. If you're above this limit, choose the KORE CYCLONE or TOP-GUN wheelsets instead.

Best For

Climbing-focused riders, hill climb events and weight-conscious builds where every gram counts, without sacrificing stiffness or aero efficiency.

Light. Fast. Precise.

Is the listed weight accurate?

Listed weights are measured without rim strips and have a tolerance of ±5%. The pre-installed rim strips add roughly 50g per pair.

Will these wheels fit my bike?

Check three things: your axle standard (e.g. 100×12mm front / 142×12mm rear thru-axle), your brake mount (Center-Lock disc), and your cassette type (HG, XDR or MS). Send us a photo of your bike on WhatsApp and we'll confirm compatibility before you order.

Can I run them tubeless?

Yes. Rim strips compatible with both tubeless tyres and standard inner tubes come pre-installed, so you can set them up either way.

Are import duties included?

For the USA and many European countries we ship DDP, meaning duties and import charges are paid in advance. You won't receive an extra bill on delivery.

What if I need a replacement spoke or part?
