2009 Campagnolo Bora Ultra Carbon Wheelset with awesome Continental 4000 tubular tires already glued.

The first thing you notice about Campagnolo's Bora Ultras is their beauty.  Due to their looks or perhaps because they are relatively rare and so expensive, few wheelsets draw as many remarks.  The carbon weave of the rim and hub is far more exciting than the black plastic look of most competitors’ carbon wheels.  Moreover, they look and feel remarkably well made and the individual parts are well integrated.  The hub, axle and bearing assembly is especially nice and easy to work with.  I also like the way the spokes just seem to disappear into carbon; there's no nipple or flange that you can see, they just poke through the hub and then slide back into the rim.  This may be one reason why they perform so well in the wind tunnel.
