Lighter. Faster. No Compromise.
Every gram shaved. Every watt saved.
The Melee v2 is engineered for riders who demand the absolute best in lightweight performance and speed.
The Melee v2 improves the two things that matter most in modern road racing — weight and aerodynamics — at the same time. By advancing both critical performance areas simultaneously, it removes the tradeoff between a lightweight climbing bike and an aero race bike without sacrificing the responsive ride characteristics the Melee is known for.

Our new SES Aero Bottle Cages reduce the aerodynamic losses created by adding bottles and cages to a bike. Designed for use with standard round water bottles.
Handlebar
& Tape
Comfort meets aero. A new airfoil design in the handlebar drops reduces drag, while the shaped pads provide comfort and further aerodynamic gains.

Watts
Airfoil shaping combined with a new thin, 1.2 mm tape results in a handlebar that performs at the top of its class.

Aerodynamics
ENVE's contribution to aerodynamics in cycling comes from an emphasis on real world speed, stability, and strength. The new Melee is our first ground-up aero bicycle development using our Real-World Fast™ protocol with rider on-board.

ULTRALIGHT BLACK | The Color of Speed
A Melee v2 with UL Black paint, in size 56cm, can readily achieve a complete bike weight of 6.8kg
Achieving a 6.8 kg complete bicycle is not an insignificant challenge in the era of disc brakes, batteries, and the never-ending pursuit for more aerodynamic efficiency.
Weight Comparison
To guarantee a sub 800 gram 56cm frame, the UL Black Melee v2 features an ultralight clear over raw carbon with minimal graphics at a penalty of only 31 grams. Fast, Functional, and Feather Light.
How these are weighed
All builds measured with Dura-Ace pedals, tires with sealant, and bar tape and computer mount included. Force builds ship with a Selle Italia Carbon saddle. Red builds with the Selle Italia 3D Carbon.
The Evolution of Speed.


[ Evolution for Speed ]
In 2022, Melee established ENVE’s foundation in road racing—bringing versatility, performance and race-ready capability to a new platform.


[ Built Around Real-World Speed ]
Melee v2 started with a simple objective: go faster. Developed at Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS’ Silverstone wind tunnel with Simon Smart, every shape was designed around real-world speed.


[ Speed is a System ]
The wind tunnel revealed that true speed goes beyond the frame. Rider position, legs, bottles, cages and wheels all influence airflow—and every element had to work together.



[ World Tour Level ]
The result is a benchmark race bike built to win: faster, lighter and engineered to deliver World Tour-level performance, while allowing a 56 cm build to reach the UCI’s 6.8 kg minimum.
