Real-World Fast Goes Off Road
G SES is where aerodynamics meet the realities of modern gravel. As gravel racing has evolved, the demands on equipment have changed with it. Higher speeds now require larger-volume tires – not only for comfort and handling, but to prevent flats from hidden rocks and ruts in the pace line.
Pair those speeds with today’s wide tires, and a huge aerodynamic opportunity opens up. The G SES 6.7 and G SES 4.5 seize that opportunity, delivering a new level of speed, stability, and efficiency for the modern gravel athlete.
Innerdrive Premium Hub System
INNERDRIVE™ represents the pinnacle of bicycle drive mechanisms. Oversized proprietary steel ratchets are positioned inboard and over the bearings reducing stress on the axle and bearings while ensuring positive and reliable engagement.
- 100% ENVE designed oversized 42mm ratchet drive system
- Longer bearing life
- Reduced axle stress = less bearing drag and prolonged bearing life
- Drive component retention
- Perfect Preload - automatic preload adjustment
- Low maintenance & easy serviceability
- 326 gram hubset (front 109g | rear 217g}
Wide Hookless Bead
The Wide Hookless Bead technology that reduces pinch flats by creating a wider, blunt leading edge that dissipates impact energy. The G SES line pulls from ENVE’s M Series mountain wheel tech to deliver impressive impact toughness for its weight.
Rim widths tuned for aerodynamic performance with modern high volume tires - as tire widths increase, so too does the rim width to maintain clean airflow across the rim's sidewall. The result is significant aerodynamic savings at the modern tire sizes that today’s gravel riders actually use.
