Description
ENVE Foundation 45 wheelset – High-quality performance for road and gravel
The ENVE Foundation 45 wheelset pays homage to the first ENVE wheels from 2007, combining cutting-edge aerodynamics with durability and versatility. Drawing on over a decade of experience developing SES Aero wheels, the Foundation collection now brings these proven technologies to a wider audience. With a 45 mm rim depth, the Foundation 45 offers a balanced blend of aerodynamic efficiency and stability, suitable for all riding conditions.
Features and benefits:
- SES Aero Development : The aerodynamic shape of the Foundation 45 is based on the SES design, which minimizes drag and improves stability. Unlike the SES series, the rims for the front and rear wheels are symmetrical, enabling performance similar to or better than many competition wheels.
- Tubeless-Only System : These wheels are compatible with tubeless tires only, recommended for tire widths between 25c and 28c. The hookless design ensures optimal and secure tire connection.
- Wide Hookless Bead Technology : The reinforced rim flanges better distribute the impact force when hitting uneven surfaces such as curbs, reducing the likelihood of pinch points and making the rim even more durable.
- Foundation Road Hubs : These premium hubs use ENVE's ID360 40t ratchet mechanism and self-adjusting preload system, eliminating the need for readjustment and reliably ensuring a play-free ride.
