Enve has produced an updated version of their SES 3.4 rim set. This latest iteration includes full compatibility with road tubeless tires, optimization for 25mm wide tires, and an updated SES aerodynamic profile. Relative to the original 3.4 rim design, the New 3.4 features a decreased depth ratio of 90% between front and rear rims, with a wider rear rim to match the width of the front rim. The advantages of this new design include lower overall weight and lower tire rolling resistance, with increased stability and traction.
Enve's 3.4 platform provides lightweight rims with an aerodynamic advantage. These rims feature Enve's molded-in textured brake track for unparalleled braking performance that remains predictable, consistent, and powerful in both wet and dry conditions, a rare feat for full carbon rims. The addition of a high temperature resin allows riders to use all this available braking force without worry of heat-related deformation. The 3.4 platform is optimized for 25mm wide tires, allowing for maximum traction and a more comfortable ride.
Each 3.4 rim comes with ENVE's internal brass nipples, a valve extender, tubeless rim tape, and a set of ENVE's proprietary brake pads.
