Improving on their SES 4.5, the new SES 5.6 delivers ENVE's latest-and-greatest in SES aerodynamic technology for a faster, more stable road race wheel. Optimized for 25mm tires, the ENVE SES 5.6 Chris King Wheelset features a variable front/rear rim depth for optimal aerodynamic performance, textured full carbon brake track, tubeless compatibility, and increased volume, delivering what serious road racers and triathletes need to maximize their speed and efficiency.

Measuring 54mm deep up front and 63mm deep in the rear, the SES 5.6 embodies the spirit of the Smart ENVE System of aerodynamics. Aero testing shows that the SES 5.6 wheels provide nearly 115 watts of savings at race pace, and those savings extend into crosswinds as well. For the rim brake rider looking for uncompromised braking performance, ENVE's textured full carbon brake track features industry leading heat resistance, uncontested stopping power, and modulation in wet or dry weather conditions.

Utilizing Chris King's R45 hubs, utilizing heat-treated steel bearings that refuse to bind or grind, even when things heat up – like during prolonged descents. These bearings sit inside surgical-grade steel races for a smooth rolling, highly efficient riding experience. Designed to roll fast out of the box, as the R45's bearing tracks burnish these hubs actually spin faster, and with a fully-serviceable rebuildable design, the R45's are designed for a lifetime of use, and built-to-last. The rear hub might just be the most iconic part of this puzzle. Featuring their iconic 45-tooth RingDrive system, every pedal stroke will stir up an angry swarm of bees that propels the bike down the road.

The ENVE SES 5.6 Chris King Wheelset includes front and rear wheels, quick release skewers (100/135mm), Brake Pads 10mm (SRAM/Shimano), valve extenders (45mm set), tubeless kit, accessory bag, wheel manual, and a wheelbuild card.
