Incredibly light carbon hubs made in the United States by the masters of carbon bicycle components and equipped with CeramicSpeed bearings. Shimano/SRAM freehub / compatible. Designed for road and cyclocross use. Weight: Rear hub: 159g Front hub: 72g Combined weight: 231g Suitable for J-bend spokes - 20 hole front, and 24 hole rear Made in the US, these carbon road hubs sit as the brand’s pinnacle choice for performance seekers ENVE is introducing, for the first time, its own top-line carbon hubs, designed to sit above premium options from Chris King and DT Swiss. The ENVE Carbon Road hubs add even more lust factor to the brand’s high-end wheels. With the rear weighing an impressive 159g. yes, there are lighter hubs, but we're not aware of any lighter 'standard hubs' that boast these strengths numbers and offer such a proven freehub design That's an impressive weight for a hub claiming such durability and that still accepts standard spokes The new carbon-shelled road hubs save 60g compared with a pair of premium DT Swiss 180 hubs. Strength dosn't appear to be an issue, with the flanges rated to take 800-900 ft/lbs of tension. (ENVE isn’t sure just how much tension these hubs can take as the spokes tend to snap at about 800 ft/lbs of tension.) This impressive figure is achieved via a similar technique to that used on ENVE's rims, where the hub spoke holes are moulded as one with the shell, meaning there's no drilling to weaken the structure. Designed with the star ratchet hub mechanism from DT Swiss’ 180 hubs and bearings from CeramicSpeed, these items are premium beyond the US-made carbon shell. A pair of hubs will set you back $1,350 (UK and Australian pricing was unavailable at the time of writing – we'll add as soon as we have it). The Carbon Road hubs are available in 20 hole front, and 24 hole rear only. The hubs hold a five-year warranty, with an impressive four-year warranty on the bearings. Thanks to the unique CeramicSpeed bearing properties, you ride faster or save energy when riding with your optimised hubs. The top hub technology designed by ENVE meets the unmatched quality and lifetime of the CeramicSpeed bearings. With a lifetime tested and proven to be 3-5 times longer than standard wheel bearings you will enjoy your ENVE hubs for a longer time and achieve top performance with your upgraded wheelset.
