Cambridge secured back-to-back League One wins with a 1-0 victory that ended Bolton's unbeaten start.
The home side nearly took a fortuitous lead inside two minutes when George Williams' overhit cross almost flew in before being tipped over by Joel Dixon, but on 15 minutes the U's did go ahead.
Wes Hoolahan slipped in Williams, who pulled back for Shilow Tracey to fire his first goal of the season into the far corner.
In the opening moments of the second half Oladapo Afolayan caused danger for Bolton with his cross, leading to a penalty-box scramble and the ball bouncing back off the Cambridge post, before Jordan Williams bent a shot wide of the far post on 52 minutes.
The away side really ramped up the pressure and Afolayan looked set to equalise on 57 minutes, but Dimitar Mitov produced a big save with his feet to stop the one-on-one.
Cambridge hung on, with Bolton boss Ian Evatt yellow-carded for complaints at the final whistle.
