ENVE SES 4.5 Disc Brake Wheelset
The ENVE SES 4.5 Disc Brake Wheelset was designed for speed and aerodynamic efficiency. Created for racers and those chasing KOMs, the SES 4.5 is one of the fastest wheelsets available! With a front wheel depth of 50 mm and rear wheel depth of 56 mm, the SES 4.5 is a favorite for riders looking for speed on flat or rolling terrain.
The ENVE SES 4.5s are laced to ENVE’s INNERDRIVE Premium Hubs that are available with SRAM XDR and Shimano HG freehub bodies. This updated hub uses straight pull spokes and is 60 grams lighter than the previous generation. The INNERDRIVE Premium hub also allows riders to choose their engagement option by swapping the ratchet between 40, 60, 80 and 100 teeth options. The wheel hoops themselves feature a 25 mm internal rim width and are compatible with 27 mm and larger tires. These wheels are tubeless compatible and work with center lock brake rotors.
