ENVE COMPOSITES SES 2.3 2022+ DISC REAR CLINCHER RIM

The ENVE SES 2.3 2022+ Disc Rear Clincher Rim represents the pinnacle of lightweight, aerodynamic engineering for performance-focused road cyclists. Part of ENVE's Smart ENVE System (SES) lineup, the 2.3 was designed specifically for riders who thrive on relentless climbs, long endurance rides, and demanding race days.
