ENVE Foundation 45mm Carbon Road WheelsetThis versatile road bike wheelset features a reliable carbon fibre construction, which makes it incredibly stiff when climbing as well as lightweight when descending. Perfect for racing, this wheelset's shape is both drag-taming and crosswind defying as it takes its design from the top of range SES model. This makes it a great choice of upgrade for modern, multi-purpose road cycling plus, its rim width and anti-pinch flat technology ensures that higher volume tubeless road tyres can be added for greater stability, strength and an incredibly low weight.Built upon over a decade of carbon wheel crafting experience, the Foundation 45 brings ENVE's knowledge and technology to the masses. Blended aero properties, tubeless compatibility, and pinch flat protection for the rider looking to test the waters on carbon wheel performance. ENVE Worthy, and priced to provide the foundation for confident riding through performance-crafted carbon in the US. Ideal for cyclists and triathletes looking to move into the world of carbon. Aerodynamics are an unalienable right for road cyclists and triathletes that allows for greater efficiency and confidence-inspiring handling, regardless of wind conditions. With more than a decade's experience in developing some of the world's fastest wheels, ENVE are uniquely qualified to deliver best-in-class aerodynamics to the Foundation customer.Like ENVE's SES wheel family, the Foundation Collection and its ENVE 45 were tested and developed at the Mercedes Benz Formula One wind-tunnel to deliver best-in-class real-world aero performance. Unlike other wheel brands who only test isolated wheels at elite speeds of 30mph/48kph, ENVE develops and tests wheels in-frame at multiple speeds ranging from 20mph/32kph to 30mph/48kph. This testing, while more time consuming and expensive, ensures that the ENVE 45 delivers performance advantages to riders of all abilities.Tubeless for the WinTubeless is the future and the future is now. The benefits of road tubeless are as follows:• Lower rolling resistance: By eliminating the inner-tube, the friction between tyre and tube is also eliminated, allowing the tyre roll, flex, and conform to the road with greater efficiency.• Flat less, ride more: Flat tyres are a buzz-kill. With a little sealant you can eliminate nearly all flats that would have been caused by an intrusive thorn or piece of debris.• Run the Best Pressure: Tubeless means you can run the pressure you want to maximize comfort, traction, and rolling efficiency. • Hookless/Straight-Sidewall Design: Tubeless performance depends on the tire maintaining a light press-fit with the rim on the bead seat diameter. ENVE chooses a hookless tubeless rim profile as it allows the rim's critical tolerance at the bead seat diameter to be both consistent and accurate. In short, hookless is chosen to deliver a more safe, reliable, and ultimately proper tyre fitment.The ENVE 45 is optimised for use with tubeless tyres greater than 25mm wide.

Wide, Hookless Bead Teachnology: Featuring ENVE's Wide Hookless Bead technology, the ENVE 45 disperses any impact from pot holes, curbs and debris over a wide area, reducing the likelihood of pinch flats. Potholes and unforeseen impacts are part of life, but that doesn't mean they need to ruin your ride. The ENVE 45 features ENVE's patent pending Wide Hookless Bead which is a design element at the leading edge of the rim that dissipates impact energy and reduces the likelihood of pinch flatting your tubed or tubeless tyre. Patented Technology: Patented Molded Spoke and Valve Stem Hole Technology results in rims that are light and strong. Because carbon fibre gets its strength from continuous fibres, ENVE routes the fibres around the hole without cutting them which increases the strength of each spoke hole. ENVE's patented process of moulding spoke and valve stem holes results in rims that are stronger and lighter. Because carbon fibre gets its strength from continuous fibres, ENVE routes the fibres around the hole without cutting them, increasing the strength of each spoke hole. This technique pays large dividends in the final product by allowing for a lighter spoke face while improving rim strength. Because of this process, our spoke holes are capable of maintaining higher spoke tensions, greatly reducing the risk of spoke pull-through and the need to constantly true your wheels.

The ENVE Foundation AG25 Gravel Wheelset is designed for everything from bike packing to gravel racing. “AG” stands for “Adventure Gravel” and this is the guiding principle behind the AG25. Part of ENVE’s new Foundation collection, the AG25 brings ENVE’s core technologies and trickle-down features from the ENVE G Series to riders seeking out adventure and ultimately looking to ride for the fun of it. The AG25 is a 700c gravel wheel that can take tyres up to 50mm, responding perfectly to the larger clearances of modern gravel and adventure bikes. The rim shape was developed by ENVE that would smooth out the ride while still delivering a confidence-inspiring feel when it comes to handling. The AG25 uses ENVE’s Wide Hookless Bead to minimise the chance of pinch flats. The wider leading edge of the rim disperses any impact from debris or potholes over a wider area. This leads to a 60+% improvement in pinch flat resistance as well as a 30+% improvement in impact strength. Drilled spoke and valve holes mean the carbon fibres in the AG25 run through the wheel uninterrupted as opposed to being cut. This makes for a stronger, lighter rim structure. Another benefit is that ENVE can control the shape of the rim at the spoke/nipple interface with greater precision. ENVE rims feature a conical nipple seat that prevents premature spoke fatigue while also ensuring wheel-build reliability. The AG25 uses the ENVE Foundation Road Hub, which uses ENVE’s core hub technologies. The hub shell uses simplified machining without compromising flange geometry and wheel build stiffness. The drive mechanism uses Instant Drive 360 technology and a 40t ratchet to deliver responsive engagement, minimal drag, and low maintenance performance. The bearings are premium full contact sealed NTN steel bearings. The Rotor attachment is center lock. The AG25 is also available with the Industry 1/1 hub. The ENVE Foundation AG25 Gravel Wheelset comes with ENVE's leading Factory Limited Warranty and Incidental Damage Protection. The Factory Limited Warranty protects buyers for five years from defects in material and workmanship, while the Incidental Damage Protection gives protection from damage caused to their wheels while riding, crashing or transporting bikes. Beyond these three years, there is a prorated discount structure available.

Shelter Wheel Kit is made of 35 washers that fit snugly over the valve stem, gluing at its base, with an elegant and almost invisible silencing effect.It's also great to balance wheels, with an additional vibration-reducing action.Key Features:Eliminates valve noises, especially on high-profile rims,Shelter washers can be used to finely balance wheels,Visco-Elastic behaviour reduced vibrations.How to silence valves:Shelter Wheel Kit is made of 35 washers that fit snugly over the valve stem, gluing at its base. With minimum bulk and weight, they provide an elegant and almost invisible silencing effect, cancelling unwanted valve movements and vibrations. The re-sealable bag makes sure washers retain their properties if needed for successive applications.Once Shelter washers are applied on the rim, it’s possible to remove the valve an re-insert it without loosing the silencing effect. This is just one application of our Shelter Wheel Kit, but there’s more.Nobody would drive a fast car whose wheels haven’t been carefully balanced after mounting tyres on.Current high performance bicycle wheels, with fancy ceramic bearings, lightweight carbon rims, cannot deliver their full potential if not properly balanced.It’s an easy task that only requires a Shelter Wheel Kit, a wheel truing stand (or a bicycle turned upside down..), patience and some minutes per wheel.Much nicer and effective than electrical tape to silence valves on high-end wheelsMuch nicer (and effective) than electrical tape to silence valves on high-end wheelsHow to balance wheels:Mount the tyre (and eventually disk) on the wheel, so that the wheel is in its rideable form.IMPORTANT: if balancing a tubeless wheel, make sure there’s very little or no liquid sealant inside (that can be added later). Liquid sealant spreads while riding without creating wheel unbalance, but it will interfere with static balancing.Place the wheel on a truing stand and make sure it can rotate freely.With a gentle push, make the wheel spin. After a few complete rotations in the direction of the push, the wheel will enter a pendulum phase where it makes partial rotations, back and forth. Behaving like a pendulum, the excess of weight on the wheel is subject to a restoring force (due to gravity) that accelerates it toward the equilibrium position. Amplitude of swings will reduce until the wheel stops: the lowest point is where the excess weight is.Often wheels stop with the valve at the lowest point… but sometimes uneven weight distribution on the tyre or less-than-accurate carbon fiber lay up overcompensate that, and the lowest point is not corresponding to the valve.Keeping the lowest point of the rim/tyre as reference, identify the opposite point on the rim (you can find it using a ruler, aligned with the lowest point and the wheel axle) and adhere a Shelter washer there.Repeat the process from #1. Each time the heaviest point may move slightly (because of friction in the hub), but it will normally remain within a +-10 cm (4 inches) range.The wheel is balanced when, upon making it turn, IT WILL STOP WITHOUT ENTERING THE PENDULUM PHASE (it won’t change its rotation sense). With each subsequent spin, the lowest point when the wheel stops is a random point on the circumference, changing every time and depending on bearing friction.Washers can be adhered one on top of the other, or side by side, on top of the rim or on its side (depending on rim profile/size).A good trick, although not always possible, is finding a spoke that’s close to the lightest point of the wheel and cutting the washer on one side, so that the washer can be put around the spoke.Each Shelter washer weights around 1 g. Typical wheel unbalance ranges from 4 to 12 grams.Visco-elasticity reduces vibrations:That’s an added bonus when balancing a wheel with Shelter washers.The transmission of vibrational energy through any structure can be reduced by introducing visco-elastic materials at discrete points. It’s exactly what Shelter does, contributing to reduce vibrations on very stiff wheels.
