Why the Melee?
The Melee, designed for modern race demands, features monocoque construction enhancing weight reduction and overall efficiency. With a generous max tire clearance of 35 mm and optimized geometry for tires between 27 and 32 mm, the Melee embodies versatility crucial for tackling varied surfaces in road racing. Guided by ENVE's Real-World Fast aero philosophy, the Melee boasts aerodynamic prowess with minimal frontal area, Kamm-tailed tube shapes, and full front-end integration. Complementing their SES™ rim profiles, the Melee's tube shapes ensure seamless airflow transitions, promising a stable ride experience in diverse wind conditions.
Technical Details
The Melee, crafted through meticulous development in both Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and wind tunnel testing, showcases meticulously refined tube shapes meticulously tuned to synergize with ENVE's SES™ rim designs, ensuring unrivaled aerodynamic prowess poised to rival the swiftest bikes on the road. Its full front-end integration seamlessly melds into the frame, contributing to the Melee's sleek and streamlined profile. Embodying the essence of Real-World Fast™, it strikes a harmonious balance between aerodynamic efficiency and weight reduction, with tube shapes harmonizing seamlessly with SES rim contours. Furthermore, its integrated front-end design cleverly conceals wires and brakes, enhancing its aerodynamic profile. Rigorously wind tunnel tested at speeds of 32 kph/20 mph and 48 kph/30 mph, the Melee stands as a testament to its performance-driven engineering.
