ENVE SES 2.3 Disc Brake Tubeless Clincher ENVE Alloy Hub 12mm Thru Axle Road Wheelset (Shimano/SRAM 11spd)

We design and build to the strengths of carbon fiber, and there's no better example of this than the SES 2.3. By using continuously running fibers throughout the rim, tapering laminates, and removing excess material, the SES 2.3 achieves an impressive feat in weight reduction and composites engineering. Additionally, layering fibers in specific orientations achieves zone-specific performance requirements like impact toughness, stiffness, and tire retention.

Tubeless represents the pinnacle of road wheel and tire performance, and the hookless bead design plays a significant role. A hookless rim design allows for machined metal tooling to establish a precise and consistent bead seat diameter that meets the defined requirement by ETRTO. That precision fitment between the tubeless tire bead and the rim's bead seat ensures air and tire retention.

This rim feature called Wide Hookless Bead greatly reduces the likelihood of pinch-flatting. Wide Hookless Bead technology works by providing a blunt surface upon which to bottom out the tire, dissipating energy across a larger surface area and preventing tire damage. This allows you to run the correct tire pressure without the worry of pinch-flatting.
