Le nec plus ultra de la roue carbone pour la pratique quotidienne et le choix de l’équipe Dimension Data-Qhubeka.
Les cyclistes sur route et les triathlètes désireux de concilier au maximum aérodynamisme, légèreté et stabilité.
Parce que c’est notre modèle préféré depuis que les premiers prototypes ENVE ont commencé à tourner. Roue à jante moyenne taillée pour la course au quotidien, la SES 4.5 complète la gamme des roues Smart ENVE System. Elle se distingue également par sa forme affinée et par sa structure propice à une meilleure accélération, une meilleure tenue dans les virages, une résistance accrue aux chocs et un poids limité.

«La ENVE est aussi l’une des meilleures roues polyvalentes que nous ayons testées : elle est légère, stable et suffisamment rapide quand vous avez besoin qu’elle le soit. Si nous devions n’en garder qu’un, ce serait probablement ce modèle-là ».– aerogeeks.com« Cette paire de roues m’a surtout étonné par son équilibre et par sa polyvalence. Elles peuvent pratiquement tout faire : elles sont si légères qu’elles sont faciles à utiliser en montée et sur le plat, elles sont vraiment aérodynamiques ».– bdc-mag.com

Perhaps the ultimate all-round, high performance wheelset, the 4.5 debuted the second generation SES profile. It delivers outright class-leading speed while retaining a very low weight and incredible stability. No wonder it’s the go-to wheel for Team Dimension Data.
The all-new SES rim profile has a significantly revised curvature and increased widths that are optimized for 25mm tires in modern frames with greater clearances. This allows air to flow smoothly over the rim – it remains ‘attached’ – even at high crosswind angles and to reattach quicker after a strong side gust. These important advances make the 4.5 both extremely fast and stable for its depth. In challenging conditions, wind-steer is all but eliminated and side force builds and releases smoothly and predictably, so you can ride and race with complete confidence.
How fast is the 4.5? Compared to the first line of SES wheels, the 4.5 essentially matches the aerodynamics of the older 6.7, which was itself ballistic yet much deeper at 60mm front and 70mm rear, and of course heavier with it. Nothing of a similar depth or weight gets close to the speed of the 4.5.
Need to know:
• Class leading aerodynamics and weight
• Incredible stability in gusty conditions
• Second generation SES rim profile
• All-new rim profiles of 48 and 56mm
• Optimized width for 25mm tires

I am a satisfied owner and user of these magnificent wheels made in ENVE,USA ! Thank you very much! My old pair wheels were good medium-grade aluminum, low profile (22 mm), 100 grams lighter than this pair of ENVE SES 4.5(Chris King) , but when climbing this american product performs even better than them, and their holding in strong crosswinds is very good, they are stable and secure! On flat terrain they show their aero benefit, but since I am a recent owner, it feeling that with as more is increasing of riding , the faster they become … They give very good safety when riding and in corners, in general the bike is more balanced and more stable than before, you feel more secure when driving! I can recommend them everybody who want to increase quality of riding and his results ! I give highest evaluation of ENVE SES 4.5 Chris King, world top wheels, excellent work ENVE Composites !
