The ENVE SES 3.4 Disc brake specific Wheelset is the ultimate carbon fibre wheel for climbers that seek some extra versatility. This wheelset is ideal for climbing but brings an aero advantage for riding descents and on the flat too.

Due to the popularity and performance benefits of wider tyres, the rims have an external width of 27.5mm so you can seize the benefits of added traction and lower rolling resistance. You can also set the wheels up as tubeless for increased puncture protection.

The wheels deliver exceptional stability in gusty conditions and crosswinds thanks to ENVEs second-generation SES rim profile. The rims have differentiated depths with 38mm on the front and 42mm on the back to give an extra aero advantage.

Thanks to the wheels being disc brake specific, ENVE has done away with the extra carbon needed for a brake track and instead concentrated the mass of the wheel to the inside edge. Alongside the moulded spoke holes and paint-free finish this brings the overall weight down whilst maintaining strength and creating exceptional stiffness and responsiveness.

The ENVE SES 3.4 Disc Wheelset is available with Chris King or ENVE hubs.

The Chris King R45D hubs are precision engineered to deliver the superb performance and durability that Chris King is renowned for. Available with the Portland, USA based brands legendary made in-house ceramic or stainless bearings and Chris Kings patented 45-tooth RingDrive system, these hubs offer unmatched engagement and power transfer. Fully serviceable, the R45D hubs promise years of use.

The ENVE Alloy Road Disc hubs are ideal for riders looking for a lightweight hub, with the set weighing under 400g. The hubs are centre lock compatible and have ENVEs Perfect Pre-load system, eliminating bearing play and the need to adjust pre-load yourself.
