Second Life Program

At Enve , quality and performance are at the heart of every product, and it is with this in mind that the Enve brand has launched the "Second Life" program. This innovative concept makes it possible to offer wheels equipped with rims that, despite having failed a rigorous aesthetic test in the United States, are in perfect working order. They are mounted directly in Europe to offer a new opportunity for these exceptional components.

The "Second Life" program is an opportunity to benefit from all the technical features that make Enve wheels famous – lightness, performance, dynamism – at an unbeatable price. You thus have the opportunity to ride on new wheels, benefiting from Enve lifetime "Crash Replacement" and a specific 5-year "No Questions Asked" warranty (it is not possible to register the wheels on the manufacturer's official website).

It is important to note that these wheels are not reconditioned, but brand new products. They simply allow Enve rims, which have failed the strict aesthetic criteria, to reveal their full potential on the road. With "Second Life", you have access to premium, robust and guaranteed wheels, at an unbeatable price.
