ENVE SES 3.4 Front Road Bike Rim

The ENVE SES 3.4 Front Rim is a replacement carbon rim for the current-generation SES 3.4 road wheel, built as an aero all-around road rim suited to climbing and mixed terrain. At a 39mm depth and 370g rim weight, it's designed to balance aerodynamics with low weight, and it's built exclusively for disc brake road bikes. The rim uses a hookless bead, is tubeless ready, and is drilled for a 24-hole disc hub.

Internally the rim measures 25mm at the bead — wide enough to properly support 27–29mm tires and improve tire shape and ride quality — with a 32mm external width. ENVE recommends a 27–28mm tire, noting a 29mm tire inflated on this rim gives the best aerodynamics, with a maximum pressure of 80 psi at 27mm. It's compatible with ENVE INNERDRIVE and other compatible 24-hole disc hubs, and is made in the USA. This is the rim only — hub, spokes, nipples, tubeless tape, valve, and rotor lockring are sold separately.

Who It's For

• Riders or wheel builders replacing a damaged or worn front rim on an existing SES 3.4 wheelset

• Disc-brake road riders who want a lightweight, aero all-around rim suited to both climbing and flatter terrain

• Tubeless setups running 27–29mm tires

• Builds using 24-hole, ENVE INNERDRIVE–compatible disc hubs

• Not a fit for rim-brake bikes — this rim is disc brake only

What to Look For

• Confirm your hub is a 24-hole disc hub compatible with ENVE INNERDRIVE spoke/nipple hardware

• Check tire width: this rim has a 27mm minimum labeled tire size, so narrower tires aren't compatible

• Budget separately for tubeless tape (29mm width), a 59mm valve, and a tire, since the rim ships bare

Key Features

Aero rim profile. At 39mm deep, the SES aerodynamic shape is built for crosswind stability while keeping weight to 370g — a depth suited to mixed terrain rather than a dedicated deep-section aero rim.

Hookless, tubeless-ready bead. The hookless design pairs with modern tubeless road tires and calls for 29mm-wide tubeless tape and a 59mm valve; maximum pressure is 80 psi with a 27mm tire.

Wide internal width. A 25mm internal / 32mm external profile supports 27–29mm tires for better tire shape and ride quality than narrower legacy rims.

Hub compatibility. Drilled for a 24-hole spoke count and built to pair with ENVE INNERDRIVE and compatible disc hubs.

Rider Intent Summary

• Biggest strength: 370g weight in an aero-profiled, wide-internal-width carbon rim

• Tradeoff: rim only — hub, spokes, tubeless tape, valve, and tire are additional purchases, and setup requires tubeless-specific components

• What makes it different: hookless bead built specifically for 27–29mm tubeless tires at 25mm internal width, made in the USA

Victory's Take

We spec the SES 3.4 for riders who want one wheelset that climbs and holds a line in crosswind; if you're rebuilding a damaged SES 3.4 front wheel, this is the correct rim rather than a generic replacement. Victory Bicycle Studio can build it onto your existing hub and dial in the tubeless setup during your fit.
