Lifetime Crash Replacement:
ENVE® Composites designs and manufactures
products that will confidently survive the rigors of
competition and riding at the highest levels. We also
understand that unintentional accidents happen more
often than any of us would like. There are pot holes,
that rider who “took me out”, distracted drivers, debris,
animals, weather, and many other ways to crash or
damage your bicycle. It may also be that you have put
a ridiculous amount of CX miles in the sand and mud
and actually wore out an ENVE product. While this
hasn’t happened…yet, should something happen not
covered by warranty, we want to keep you riding your
ENVE products with as little pain to the pocket book as
possible. Toward that goal we offer a LIFETIME Crash
Replacement Policy to the original owner.
Five-year No Hassle Warranty:
ENVE® Composites warrants all products to be free
from defects in materials or workmanship for a period
of FIVE YEARS from the original purchase date, (receipt
required). This warranty is non-transferable and valid
to the original purchaser of the product only.
Claims under this warranty must be made through
the retailer where the original purchase of your ENVE
product was made. Proof of purchase is required.
Congratulations on the purchase of your “Handmade in
the USA” ENVE wheelset!
ENVE, by our definition, is the burning desire to get to
or create the perfect solution. Every product that bears
the ENVE name is the result of this passion. Each rim,
wheel, and component is designed with form, function,
and beauty in mind. It is Our Culture, it is Our Goal, and
it will always be Our Way.
The ENVE®Process
In designing ENVE wheels, our engineers set out to
produce the strongest, fastest, stiffest, lightest and
most reliable wheels on the planet. Through materials,
tooling and finite processes, our engineers focus on
designing features into each wheel that address the
traditional weaknesses of carbon rims and ultimately
result in a wheel that is strong enough to train on and
light enough to race on.
Molded Spoke Holes and Valve Stem Hole – ENVE
Composites’ patented process of molding in spoke
holes is one example of how ENVE builds stronger rims.
Because carbon fiber structures get their strength
from continuous, unbroken fibers, ENVE routes the
fibers around the hole which increases the strength of
each spoke hole. This technique pays large dividends
in the final product by allowing for a lighter spoke face
in the rim without compromising strength. Because of
this process, our spoke holes are capable of resisting
higher spoke tensions which greatly reduces the risk
of spoke pull-through during wheelbuild and on the
road. Molded spoke holes also improve the quality of
the wheelbuild itself. Because the fibers around the
spoke face of the rim are 100% intact, spoke tension is
distributed more uniformly around the rim. This makes
it easier to build a wheel with even tensions, as well as
produce a higher quality wheelbuild that will require
less maintenance down the road.
Along with molding in the actual spoke hole, ENVE rims
also feature molded-in, conical, nipple seats on the
inside of each rim. Carbon rims due to their stiffness,
