ENVE SES 4.5
THE QUINTESSENTIAL AERO ROAD WHEEL
The original modern tubeless road wheel that was the first of its kind to pair the rolling efficiency of high-volume road tires with world-class aerodynamics. The SES 4.5 is re-engineered to reduce weight and strengthen its position as the house favorite.

From the Curator;
SUMMARY - Whats new with Gen4.
1) Its designed around wider, high volume tires.
This helps with aerodynamics and all the high-volume advantages like rolling resistance (efficiency), comfort, traction, control and handling.
2) Its really light.
Introducing the 2.3 - Enve's lightest wheel ever.
Meanwhile, when you take the deepest, heaviest Gen4 wheel - the 6.7's and compare to the Gen3. It is lighter than both the 4.5 and the 5.6 disc. In fact the 6.7 (gen4) is only 77g heavier than the 3.4 (Gen3). If you need light and aero, here's your answer.
In short, the Gen4 is Enve's ultimate wheel collection.

<Curator notes>
R45D Centerlock Rear hub requires an external lockring. The best option on the market is the Ashima Lightweight Rotor Lockring.
Wheel is further Aero optimized with Enve tubeless tires.
Weight optimized - We recommend:
"The World's Lightest Rotors" - Ashima AiNeon Centerlock Rotors
More than 25% lighter than top tier rotors like Dura Ace.
Only use the original Enve Tubeless tape and Enve Tubeless Kit on your Enve wheelsets.
We have seen rim explosions with other 3rd party tapes.
They do not conform and stick to the profile of the rim bed, in other cases they were not the exact width or thickness necessary.
