ENVE Composites SES Pro

While it is optimized for gravel, the SES 4.5 Pro is designed for versatility. Its aerodynamic profile and durable construction make it an excellent choice for any mixed-surface riding where you need a balance of speed on pavement and stability on loose terrain.

The rim is optimized for tires between 44mm and 52mm. Using tires within this range ensures you get the intended aerodynamic benefits and handling characteristics the wheel was designed to provide.

The rim is tubeless-ready, meaning it is designed to be run without inner tubes for better puncture resistance and lower rolling resistance. You will still need to install tubeless tape, valves, and sealant to complete the setup.

No, this wheel is designed specifically for modern disc-brake bikes using a 12x100mm thru-axle standard. It is not compatible with quick-release dropouts.

The hub is compatible with Center Lock brake rotors. This is the standard mounting system for most modern disc-brake gravel and road wheelsets.

At 450 grams, this carbon rim is significantly lighter than most alloy alternatives. This reduction in rotational weight makes the front end feel more responsive, allowing for quicker acceleration and easier steering through technical gravel sections.
