What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
“I’ve been hyped for the 4.5 PRO ever since the early specs dropped. ENVE managed to make this wheelset lighter and faster without giving up that signature smooth control. The new hub rolls insanely well—and the handling is confidence-inspiring, even on gusty descents.”
We chase marginal gains with every pedal stroke, and the ENVE SES 4.5 PRO delivers where it counts—weight, aerodynamics, and rolling efficiency. This next-gen wheelset is engineered for those who demand podium-ready performance and day-in, day-out reliability for training, racing, or pushing personal bests.
The SES 4.5 PRO blends a 49mm front and 55mm rear rim depth for aerodynamic speed that still feels stable in crosswinds. It rolls on ENVE’s all-new Innerdrive PRO hubset, featuring ceramic bearings for frictionless movement and ultra-quick engagement. Tubeless-ready, optimized for 28mm tires, and weighing just 2lb 13.7oz (1295g) with valves and tape, this is the fastest, most refined version of the 4.5 yet.

SES 4.5 PRO Construction
New rim design saves 50 grams per rim over the SES 4.5. This is where the weight was saved.
- Reduced rim depth
- Rim width is narrower
- By removing material from under the Wide Hookless Bead ™ pinch-flat and impact function is preserved
- A small hook is created as a result of eliminating material from Wide Hookless Bead ™ (critical tubeless dimensions preserved with new channel manufacturing technique)
- Actual inner-rim width is maintained, preserving tire volume and rolling-resistance performance
- New materials allow for thinner sidewalls and channel
Purpose-Built for Real-World Speed
The SES 4.5 PRO is not a do-everything wheel — it’s a refined race tool built for riders who care about efficiency where it actually matters. ENVE re-engineered its most successful rim profile to deliver lower rolling resistance, improved stability, and meaningful weight savings without compromising aerodynamic performance. Positioned between ENVE’s deepest aero wheels and its lighter climbing options, the SES 4.5 PRO is the most balanced race wheel in the lineup for speed, stability, and efficiency.
Aerodynamic Efficiency
Built around ENVE’s Smart ENVE System philosophy, the SES 4.5 PRO is engineered for Real-World Fast™ performance. That means aerodynamic efficiency balanced with stability, durability, and predictable handling, not just wind tunnel numbers.
By refining the proven SES 4.5 rim shapes, ENVE delivers class-leading aero efficiency that remains calm and confident at speed, even in variable winds. The result is a wheel that stays fast when conditions are not perfect, which is exactly where real racing happens.
Innerdrive PRO Hub Performance
The Innerdrive PRO hubset reduces friction with ceramic bearings and refined internals for quicker engagement, quieter operation, and a smoother feel under load. Less drag, faster response, and efficiency you can feel every time you accelerate.
Optimized for Modern Road Tires
Designed around a 23.5mm internal rim width, the SES 4.5 PRO is optimized for 28mm tubeless tires. This allows lower pressures that reduce rolling resistance while improving control and stability at speed—without sacrificing aerodynamic efficiency.
