With the SES 6.7 Clincher Rear wheel, ENVE recognised the recipe for a fast wheel is no one single element; rather, it’s a combination of factors. When you start with in-frame development and blend proven aerodynamics, optimized stability, lightweight, stiffness and durability, the result is a revolutionary wheel design. The ceramic bearings are a premium feature allowing a smoother and more continuous rolling speed and motion.

The Smart ENVE System optimizes the interface between the frame surfaces and the wheels, creating an integrated system. The front and rear wheels interact differently with the air and the rest of the bicycle. Rim shapes are optimized to allow airflow to stay attached at higher yaw angles, thus reducing drag and improving ride performance.

Steering feedback in variable conditions needs to be predictable to have total handling confidence. Less predictable wheels have a non-linear steering response, resulting in erratic and unpredictable handling in unsteady conditions. The shape of the Smart ENVE System rim is optimized to ensure even and predictable airflow attachment. What the rider experiences is a balanced build up of side force as the angle of crosswind changes. This allows the rider to accurately predict the handling mannerisms of the wheel and avoid dangerous over correction cycles.

ENVE is renowned for developing the strongest, stiffest and lightest rims on the market. This durability is proven across all disciplines of the sport including being the first and only carbon wheel to podium at World Cup DH events. All ENVE products, including the Smart ENVE System, share this advanced manufacturing technology.

Traditionally, a deeper wheel gives lower drag through increased side force, so there is more load on the side of the wheel, which the rider needs to counteract with steering force. At a certain wind angle the airflow will separate, and then the steering force has to be reduced making it difficult for the rider to maintain their desired line. Often the condition becomes unstable and takes several steering inputs to get the bike back on line, which can potentially be very dangerous in a TT or triathlon. This instability can cost valuable time when you need to come off the extensions to stabilize the bicycle.

Looks wise, ENVE wheels have always been top-of-the-line and with the eye-catching red Chris King hub, this wheel is going to have you turning-heads.
