Enve Foundation AR40 White 2026 (Rear wheel)

ENVE Foundation AR40 White 40mm tubeless carbon road rear wheel 2026

The ENVE Foundation AR40 rear wheel is designed to offer performance, efficient power transfer, and maximum versatility for demanding road and all-road cyclists. With its 40mm deep carbon rim and 25mm internal width, it provides an excellent balance between aerodynamic efficiency, comfort, and traction on both paved roads and mixed terrain.

Developed in the same vein as the high-performance ENVE wheels, it benefits from a wind tunnel-optimized profile and a robust construction designed for long, fast rides, endurance courses, and light gravel riding. Its tubeless-only design allows you to ride faster, with fewer punctures and better pressure management.

Combined with the ENVE INNERDRIVE™ hub, with its wide hookless profile and patented molded spoke holes, this rear wheel guarantees reliability, precise engagement and reduced maintenance, even under intensive use.
