ENVE Wheels with Bitex Hubs

Gravel in depth

ENVE SES 3.4 wheels on Bitex BX 106 hubs

Our gravel pick from the ENVE and Bitex parts we build with. The ENVE SES 3.4 is a hookless carbon rim, 25mm inside, 39mm deep, about 370 grams in 700c, sized for about 35 to 50mm tires. We lace it to Bitex BX 106 hubs in 24 hole.

• Axle ends that convert. Bitex lists quick release and 12mm thru-axle options on models like the MTR, and shows the axle and end cap changes in its videos. If your next frame uses a different standard, the wheel may be able to follow it.

ENVE M5 Pro wheels on Bitex BX 211 hubs

Our mountain pick from the ENVE and Bitex parts we build with. The ENVE M5 Pro is a hookless carbon rim, 29mm inside, 20mm deep, about 345 grams in 29 inch, sized for about 2.3 to 2.6 inch tires. We lace it to Bitex BX 211 hubs in 24 hole.

• M Series front and rear rims do different jobs. On models like the M6, the front rim runs wider for more tire support, lower pressure and more traction, with a narrower edge to save weight. The rear gets a wider edge for pinch-flat and impact protection, because ENVE says that is where damage is more likely.
• Six pawls in two sets. Bitex's patented freehub splits its pawls into two groups of three that take turns meeting the ratchet teeth, so the gap between engagement points is half what it would be. The company says the larger pawls also carry more load.

ENVE SES 2.3 wheels on Bitex BX 106 hubs

Our road pick from the ENVE and Bitex parts we build with. The ENVE SES 2.3 is a hookless carbon rim, 21mm inside, 28mm deep, about 275 grams in 700c, sized for about 28 to 38mm tires. We lace it to Bitex BX 106 hubs in 24 hole.

• Molded spoke holes. ENVE forms its spoke and valve holes in the mold instead of drilling them, so the carbon fibers stay uncut. Drilled carbon needs extra material to restore its strength, and ENVE says skipping that saves weight without giving up durability or stiffness.
• Alloy or steel axle. On the 142mm MTR rear, Bitex lists a 35.7g alloy axle and an 84g steel one, so a rider can choose between saving weight and a heavier steel part.
