Features

Real-World Fast

Developed in CFD and the wind tunnel, the Melee features refined tube shapes that have been tuned to complement ENVE's SES™ rim shapes and deliver aerodynamic performance that is ready to battle with the fastest bikes on the road. Full front-end integration contributes to the Melee's slippery design.

Real-World Fast Defined:

• Balanced for aero efficiency and weight savings
• Tube shapes complement SES rim shapes
• Integrated Front-End hides wires and brake
• Wind tunnel tested for performance at 32 kph/20 mph and 48 kph/30 mph

Rider Specific Fit and Tune

At the foundation of performance is bike fit and geometry. If those two fundamentals are not established, all the engineering wizardry and space age materials in the world won't save your ride. You need an optimized fit and tuned geometry to give you the confidence and comfort needed to reach your performance potential.

Offered in seven sizes with five fork rakes and giving you the opportunity to choose your bar model, bar width, stem length, stem rise, seatpost length and offset, the Melee has your ideal fit in mind.

While three fork rakes handily service the bulk of riders, we've added two extra fork rakes to specifically accommodate the smallest and largest riders in the ENVE family. This ensures that all Melees, regardless of size, will deliver the same level of responsive, confidence inspiring handling required from a race bike.

Integrated For Speed

The Integrated Front-End routes wires and hoses through the bar, stem, and headset where they're secured using ENVE's anti-rattle frame finishing kit. This allows internally routed hoses and wires to remain silent, out of sight, and out of the wind. Featuring the two-piece Integrated Aero Stem and SES AR Handlebar, the Melee capitalizes on the conveniences of a two-piece handlebar and stem while maximizing the aerodynamic benefits of the streamlined design.

Material Optimized Design (M.O.D.)

We are carbon experts, artisans of our craft, using the best material for the application and making the products that we want to ride. At ENVE, we design and build to the strengths of carbon fiber. This means running continuous fibers throughout the frame and fork, tapering the laminate, and removing excess material to save weight. Carbon fiber is layered and oriented to achieve zone-specific performance requirements like impact toughness, stiffness and compliance. M.O.D. is giving you everything you need, and nothing that you don't to perform when the rubber hits the road.

Complete Bikes, Your Way

The Melee is available as a frameset or through our Spec'd For Speed bike build program - your gateway to building the exact bike you want.

Spec'd for Speed opens up a range of options, allowing you to tailor every detail to your riding style. Choose your ideal handlebar model and width, dial in wheel selection, pick your preferred groupset and crank length, and fine?tune the finishing touches that make a bike unmistakably yours. It's the level of premium component choice you expect from ENVE, brought together in one seamless, rider?focused experience.
