Enve took a unique approach in their development of the System 3.4 rims, collaborating with aerodynamicist Simon Smart to design a wheelset using front and rear specific rim shapes to optimize the interaction between wheels and frame. The goal was to create an integrated system, taking into account the fact that front and rear wheels are not affected by wind in the same manner.
The new Smart ENVE System 3.4s are specifically designed as a multi-purpose wheelset that can be used in virtually all weather conditions, terrains and disciplines. The 3.4s, being shallower, offer maximum performance characteristics for professional and novice riders alike in mountainous terrain, or when the wind conditions are too strong for the 6.7s. The 3.4 wheel system is capable of producing very low drag numbers while creating a higher stability index given its shallower depth.
