ENVE Wheels with SON Hubs



Custom ENVE Wheels on SON Hubs
Pick an ENVE rim we carry, put it on a SON hub, and we lace and true the wheel by hand in our Georgia shop.
Why build ENVE rims on SON hubs:
- Made by specialists: ENVE rims molded in Ogden, Utah (SES, G and M Series), on SON hubs made in Tuebingen, Germany
- Proven: ENVE developed its M Series over 322 prototypes with pro riders and teams; SON hubs run many tens of thousands of kilometers with no adjustment
- Built to last: SON backs every hub with a five-year warranty; ENVE covers its rims with a lifetime warranty
- Laced and trued by hand, one wheel at a time, in our Georgia shop
- In depth below: SES 3.4 gravel · M5 Pro mountain · SES 2.3 road

Gravel in depth
ENVE SES 3.4 wheels on SON Delux Disc hubs
Our gravel pick from the ENVE and SON 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 SON Delux Disc hubs (front wheel) in 24 hole.
- Bearings that need nothing from you. SON uses SKF ball bearings sealed on both sides and lubricated for life, which it says run many tens of thousands of kilometers with no adjustment. All SON hubs carry a five-year warranty.

Mountain in depth
ENVE M5 Pro wheels on SON 28 Disc 6-bolt hubs
Our mountain pick from the ENVE and SON 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 SON 28 Disc 6-bolt hubs (front wheel) 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.
- A generator tuned to how you ride. The SON 28 is SON's all-purpose choice, with strong output even at low speed, including for charging devices. The SONdelux is lighter with lower mechanical resistance for fast riders and small wheels, and it gives up some output below 20 km/h.

Road in depth
ENVE SES 2.3 wheels on SON Delux Disc hubs
Our road pick from the ENVE and SON 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 SON Delux Disc hubs (front wheel) 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.
- A generator with its coil in the center. SON uses a claw-pole generator with the coil placed centrally and carefully made sheet metal parts, which it says keeps losses low when the lights are off. It works without gears or contact, so SON says the generator itself does not wear.

Questions about these builds
Which ENVE rim should I build on SON hubs?
For gravel, the SES 3.4 (25mm inside) on SON Delux Disc hubs; for mountain, the M5 Pro (29mm inside) on SON 28 Disc 6-bolt hubs; for road, the SES 2.3 (21mm inside) on SON Delux Disc hubs. Each one opens the builder from its section above, and the cards below cover every ENVE rim that fits a SON hub.

Why the pairing, specs and FAQ
Custom hand built ENVE wheels on SON hubs
Every pair on this page is in our builder today, with a rim and hub that fit each other. We lace each wheel by hand in our Georgia shop: tensioned evenly, trued flat and round, and stress-relieved before it ships. Spoke lengths are calculated from the measured dimensions of your exact rim and hub.
What ENVE rims and SON hubs each bring
- 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.
- A seat for internal nipples. Where a rim uses internal nipples, a molded cone behind the hole lets the nipple pivot like a ball in a socket, so the spoke leaves at the same angle the nipple sits. ENVE says the lower bending stress means less truing and fewer fatigue breaks.
- 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.
- A generator with its coil in the center. SON uses a claw-pole generator with the coil placed centrally and carefully made sheet metal parts, which it says keeps losses low when the lights are off. It works without gears or contact, so SON says the generator itself does not wear.
- Pressure compensation to keep water out. SON credits this system, which ends in the axle bore, for its protection against water getting in. It is why SON asks you not to grease the skewer shaft and to keep strong jets of water off the hub.
- Bearings that need nothing from you. SON uses SKF ball bearings sealed on both sides and lubricated for life, which it says run many tens of thousands of kilometers with no adjustment. All SON hubs carry a five-year warranty.
Two things to check before you order
- Nipples. The SES 3.4, SES 4.5, G23, SES 2.3, G SES 4.5 Pro, G SES 6.7 Pro, SES 4.5 Pro, SES 6.7 Pro, AM30 and M9 Pro take internal nipples; the M5 Pro, M6 and M8 take external nipples. The builder offers only the nipple type each rim takes.
- Tires. The SES 4.5 Pro and SES 6.7 Pro are hooked; every other ENVE rim on this page is hookless, so choose a tire its maker rates for hookless rims.
ENVE and SON custom wheel questions
Which SON hub fits my ENVE rim?
The cards on this page start on the SON hub our customers build with each rim most often (SON Delux Disc, SON 28 Disc 6-bolt). The builder lists every SON hub that fits your rim, in the drillings and brake types that match.
Do you build ENVE rims on other hubs?
Yes. See our ENVE custom wheel page for every hub that fits each ENVE rim, or our SON custom wheel page for every rim on a SON hub.
Can you build with a SON hub or ENVE rim I already own?
Yes. Choose the supply-your-own option in the configurator, ship it to us, and we will lace it into a new wheel with new spokes cut to the right length. You pay for the parts you need and the build labor.
How long will my wheel take?
Build time comes down to parts availability rather than bench time. Your estimated ship date is shown in the configurator before you check out, so you know the date before you pay.
Not sure what to pick? Email info@prowheelbuilder.com (fastest) or leave a voicemail on 470-253-0929. You will be talking to the people who build the wheels.
