The SES 4.5 Carbon Front Wheel is an aero road wheel designed to deliver real-world speed without any nervousness when the road gets rough or the wind picks up. It's shaped, tested and built to ENVE's Real-World Fast philosophy, where crosswind stability and handling matter as much as raw aerodynamics.

The SES 4.5 is the ENVE house favourite, prized for balancing speed, stability, weight and versatility better than anything else in the range.

Front-specific shaping prioritises crosswind stability, keeping the bike calm and predictable in gusts where deeper wheels would push you around. The rim runs 50mm deep with a 25mm internal width.

Like the rest of the range, it's optimised for tubeless with a hookless bead that allows the precise, consistent rim dimensions tubeless setups rely on. ENVE's patent-pending Wide Hookless Bead adds a more forgiving leading edge that helps resist pinch-flats when you catch an edge or a rock.

The wheel is laced to the ENVE INNERDRIVE Premium straight-pull hub - a 100% ENVE-designed mechanism with oversized steel ratchets set inboard over the bearings for positive, reliable engagement and easy servicing.
